The "startup" message is only sent once when the app is launched. In a 
standalone, the first card of the mainstack will receive the message and 
your scripts can use it. In the IDE, none of your stacks will ever 
receive the message because the IDE stacks load before yours do. It 
isn't a bug. In the IDE, Rev's Home stack gets the message because it is 
the first stack that is opened after launch.
