Hi Geoff,
Thanks for pointing that out to me. I thought I'd give you some feedback.
This is exactly the kind of thing I had in mind. If this is not part of Rev's strategy, I think it should be.
Just to put my response in context, I'm on Windows XP, using Rev 2.0.1
Firstly, I had some trouble downloading the stack with Netscape (Rev complained it was not downloaded in a binary format). But it downloaded ok with IE.
When I rip a simple test stack to XML the Rev IDE seems to hang (says 'not responding' in the window title bar). However, when I ctrl+alt+del to look at Task Manager to see what if Rev was actually computing, it became responsive once more.
I looked at the ripped stack, and changed some text, then saved it. When I wanted to burn a stack from the XML doc Rev crashed. I tried again, and it crashed Rev a second time.
I'm not sure if this is freeware or if you are planning to license/sell this as a product (I noticed it was on the same page as products you sell).
Regards,
Bernard

I wrote a stack called mcRipper that converts a stack to XML. As I
recall, it converts just about everything (scripts included). It also
had the ability to create a stack from XML.
It's been a looong time since I wrote it. It hasn't been tested with
2.0, but feel free to be the first! (work on a copy)
