Just curious : how do you manage upgrades of a standalone,
if not by downloading new versions of sub-stacks that will be
downloaded and saved on the HD, and thus ending with more
than 1 file on the user's HD ?
Of course, there's also the possibility to open a distant stack
from the standalone, but that means client - server communication
everytime the executable is used...
Unless I'm missing something...

Thanks,
JB
