Windows Exe Crashes

[Bridger Maxwell]

Actually, even the stack that gets compiled into a .exe still has its source
available.  If you drag the executable to a text editor and scroll through
all of the garbage, you can find all of your scripts in plain text.
 Compiling a stack is essentially attaching the Revolution engine to a
stack.  You can encrypt your stacks to protect your data though.  In the
standalone application settings, under the "Stacks" tab and at the
bottom-right, you can put a password on your stacks.
