If you have a stack to save, try something like this in a button:

on mouseUp
   answer file "where to save the stack?"
   if it <> "" and the result = "" then
     put it & ".rev" into thePath
   end if
   save stack "name of your stack goes here" as thePath
end mouseUp


Note that you cannot edit an executable, so you can't save the substack 
into the executable itself. On Mac OS X, executables are contained 
within a bundle folder, which you can theoretically put stuff into, but 
Apple is not fond of that, and the newest OS (leopard) will put up a 
dialog if you try to reopen an application edited in this way.

Because of this, you're best served by creating a document paradigm, 
letting users send individual stack files around, and open them with 
your application.
