Apparently Macintel desktop aliases are cranky buggers to delete.  I 
have tried every combo I can think of in MC.

delete folder theFile # if there is a folder theFile
delete file theFile # if there is a file theFile
delete theFile # if there is a folder theFile, if there is a file theFile

The only thing that had worked is the revDeleteFolder, and apparently 
it doesn't work in MC or an MC standalone.  It worked perfectly in 
Rev.

As for revXXX things... I still do not understand.  The engine is the 
same regardless, right?  The only difference between Rev 2.7 and MC 
2.7 is the IDE, the user interface.  So there must be libraries or 
stacks that contain the special revXXX items, that I could add to my 
stack to make them work?
