I am sorry I took so long; I have been building some bookshelves.
I have just tried a Mac Classic standalone with Revolution 4 developer
preview;
while the standalone process seems to work, including a message that the
build has been successful, all I ended up with was an empty folder.

If you really need to build a Mac Classic standalone the easiest way is to
download Metacard 2.5:

http://www.hot.com.my/metacard/

and use this to build. Be aware that you will have to save your stack in the
legacy format and that any new features introduced into RunRev after
about RR 2 will not work.

I would not recommend using Metacard 2.5 to put stacks together as it has an
extremely primitive interface and it will restrict you to 10 lines of code
per
object.
