How to save stacks using RunRev standalones:
Normally one can save a stack using the "save" command. But standalones
generated with RunRev can't save themselves. That means that every
stack within the application is unable to save itself. So one has to
save a stack that is not part of the Application. Many developer use a
so called "Splash screen" approach. The application itself is only a
splash screen, which then loads all the other stacks from a predefined
location. For example like this:
on startup
hide me
go stack "Interface.rev"
end startup
for this to work the stack "Interface.rev" just has to be in the same
directory as the application. As "Interface.rev" is not part of the
application file, it can be saved without problem. As long as it is not
on a CD or a write protected location as the application folder of Win
XP, but that is another problem.
