The cantmodify will certainly prevent unwanted saves, but it may be
worth noting that saving is always under the developer's control anyway.
This is in contrast to HyperCard and SuperCard, which automatically save
and you have no control over it.
But with Rev, saving only occurs if you issue a save command a stack
isn't saved when it's closed, so subsequent sessions will continue to
show the stack in the same state as when you had last saved it,
regardless of any changes made without a save command.
