You can change a file extension to anything you like.  For background on how
various OSes deal with file associations use the Documentation Search in
Rev's help menu and search for "documents".

The situation with Rev is pretty much as it is with all applications:  the
standalone is the executable, and data is stored outside the executable.
All OSes require this, except for Mac OS but with OS X adopting the industry
standard way of doing thing (no writing to the executable at runtime) is
recommended.
