One nice thing about using Jacque's automated setup tool for MC is that it avoids the one mistake that can easily hose an MC Home stack: before attempting to run any MC installation, you must first run and register your Rev installation. Without that, any Home stack will be altered in ways I don't understand but which have made it unusable afterward.

But if you first register Rev before attempting to run MC, you can make an Home stack you like: Just name a stack file "mchome.mc", put in anything you want to have it be your IDE (MC's just launches "mctools.mc"), and once the engine verifies that it's been successfully registered it merely looks for "mchome.mc" and opens it, leaving the details of what happens next entirely up to you.

I think it's worth taking a moment to express kudos for Kevin and the team for simplifying the creation of other IDEs this way. The current method better enforces their own license, while leaving complete freedom for developers to craft their own environments. Win-win for all.
