running the Player

[Charles Hartman]

Or you (the developer) can simply open Get Info on the stack file and  
change the Open With there, before distributing the stack. Either  
way, you produce a stack which can be double-clicked to run under the  
Player.

The problem comes when you -- or rather your not-in-the-know user --  
double-click the Player app. It's a perfectly reasonable thing to do,  
so you can't blame users for doing it. But it doesn't work. That's  
the issue, at least for me.
