You can use the built in function "defaultFolder" (or simply "folder")
Note that this gives you a full path - so you should not add "//" to the 
start of it

put the defaultFolder into curPath
RevGoURL ("file:" & curPath & "/index.htm")    -- Note simply 'file:' 
without any leading /s


It's always a good idea to add the parentheses in a case like this.
For RevGoURL, I think it would be OK without it, but other cases would 
not be, e.g.

    put URL ("file:" & curPath & "/index.htm") into myData
puts the content of the index.html file into the variable

    put URL "file:" & curPath & "/index.htm" into myData
puts the URL "file:" (i.e. empty),  followed by the path, followed by 
the string "index.htm" into the variable.
