John,

There are some subtle differences between MC and RR. You can of course
change the .rev to .mc and some will work...but others won't. There are some
custom commands and libraries in RR that don't exist in MC, and I suppose
the reverse is true as well. If it doesn't seem to work in MC, contact the
author for help.

I know for a fact some of my demo stacks work only in RR (the archive plugin
for instance). I need to tweak it a bit for MC. Both MC and RR are fine
programming environments, each with it's plusses and minuses -- and both
work using the MC engine.

>From my 'limited' understanding (correct me or slap me), most of the MC
programmers seem to be on UNIX/Linux/PC platforms and have been using it for
awhile -- heavy duty coders;-). MC seems to have a more robust (doesn't
crash) IDE, but without as many features. A lot of Mac users and newbies
prefer the more feature rich (and sometimes complicated?) IDE of RunRev. The
choice is completely up to the user -- some of them (like myself) own
licenses to both products. I personally use RR more than MC but you'll find
many others who prefer the other way around.

You also might want to subscribe the the runrev lists as well. There's good
content over there which pertains to both programming environments.
