To add just a bit to the great info that Kevin has shared, when you open
the Standalone Building and try to select the other engine (mc.exe, for
example), you won't see it in the list of files displayed. I copied the
mc.exe engine into my MetaCard folder. Then I can just enter "mc.exe"
into the field. If you have the engine file someplace else (or you have
set the directory to something else), you'll need to specify the path.
The easiest way to do this is click Select next to the file name field
and select some MC file in the directory. You can copy this path, paste
it into the engine field, and replace the file name with the name of the engine.

Other than that little fiddling now and then, it works slick!
