Opening a stack stored in dropbox's public folder

This underscores the inherent problem with writing apps that depend on other systems or apps to function. Sometimes it’s unavoidable, but if it can be avoided and you can use a system you control, that of course is always the better way.

Are you using an old link? I had a similar failure recently and found out that Dropbox had changed the link.  I coded in the new one and it worked again.  It was a little disconcerting that they'd do that.

There was a time when this worked, but not now.

I put

 go url  "https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/ ....etc."

And I get "no such card"

If I put the Dropbox's public link into the address line of Safari I
get a list of the scripts, so I know the link is OK,
Doesn't this work any more in RR?
