Crash report procedure

Sivakatirswami,

altSplash (there are probably quite a few new versions since the one
you have) looks for a fld 'vers' in the mainstack (not the
standalone).

If I were you, I'd try something like:

if there is a file tMainStackPath then
  if there is a stack tMainStackPath then

That way it will check to see if it's a valid path. If you're still
getting a crash then you might use a try statement around the 'if thre
is a stack'

I'm pretty sure that's where you're running into problems. Even so,
I've never seen altSplash crash on a corrupted stack, and a press of
the resetAll button should delete the offending stack and quit so the
user can relaunch.

HTH,

Chipp
