What's happened is that the stack hasn't been given a Mac type and creator
signature. (The first time Revolution runs on a Mac, it attempts to set it
up so the extension ".rev" is recognized as belonging to the Rev type and
creator, but it's possible this failed for some reason.)

Quick fix: type this into the message box:

  answer file "Where's the stack?";open stack it

(The next time you save the stack file, it will be given the proper type
and creator and you won't have to do this again.)
