I don't know of any way to do it except to get the defaultFolder the 
moment the first stack launches. The defaultFolder is initially the same 
one containing the engine.

HyperCard had a function for it: the long name of HyperCard. This 
returned the path to the engine. That would be nice to have in Rev too.
