For those who like to toy.
And want to test the versatility of the player and admire its 
secureMode.
The recipe:

In RR produce a stack with 1 field and 1 button
Set the script of the button to:

on mouseUp
   get fld 1
   if it is not "" then do it
end mouseUp

Set the stack's name  to anything but "test" and save it.
Put the player on its own in a separate folder/directory outside the RR 
folder/directory together with the newly created stack.
Start the stack with the player and enter/paste the following complete 
block of text in the field:


create invisible stack "test"
set the defaultstack to "test"
create button "save"
show stack "test"
put  "on mouseup" & cr & "ask file" && quote& "where" & quote&&  "with" 
&& quote & "test.rev"& quote&cr&"if it is not empty then save this 
stack as it" & cr&  "end mouseup" into tText
set the script of control 1 of cd 1 of stack "test" to tText

Watch the mail text wrap
Push the button and have a look in the directory it saved.

This is only tested on Mac OS X.
And I like it the way it is :-)
