In our last episode, I proceeded on Andre's excellent idea of an evil 
dialogue stack. I created a new mainstack and pointed the previous 
substacks at it, with the exception of the immortal dialog stack. 
Saved under a new name and reopened. Poof, suspect dialog is gone and 
the default dialogs have reappeared.  I built an .exe file into a 
fresh directory, zipped it, put it online, and invited unsuspecting 
students to download.

The result:   The dreaded 0,0 error.

I am just reeling with disbelief.

A new test stack (no functions, just to see if it will open) went 
through fine and the students opened it. I'm willing to tear this set 
of stacks down to the new mainstack, dummy out the calls to other 
stacks, and build it up till I find the stack that kills it.  I had 
other things going on in my life, but hey, in for a penny in for a 
pound. More later.
