Klaus,
Thank you for the clarification.
No apologies needed for delays. Lordy if I apologized every time I
didn't meet a self-imposed deadline I might as well crawl in a hole,
LOL!

Hi all,
the current version of the MC IDE can be used with engines >= 4,
but is NOT able to build standalones with the new process REV
introduced with 4.0.
This means you can only build standalones with engines <=3.5.
I hope I can publish a new IDE in a couple of weeks or maybe
months, consideri

Second, if you are including MC resources in your stack, Rev may not
like it. Make a copy of one that won't build and, as a test, open it
in MC and use the resource mover to remove all MC resources. Save
the stack. If the file extension is "mc" on disk then change it to
"rev" (shouldn't be nece

Possibly the quickest way to get some reasonable sort of reply to
your question is to post to
the RunRev Use-List rather than the Metacard one.
Richmond,
I only attempted a build in Rev after the MC attempt gave an error.
I do everything in MC so I came here first hoping for an MC fix. The

OSX supports a resource fork? I had heard that it didn't. Though I
haven't experienced OSX first hand...
I've tried to do this before, but can't seem to create an .ico file that will be accepted. (I'm a Mac user, mainly, maybe that add to the mystery for me.)
How do you do this?
What software and/or process do you use?
Do you have to do anything special for XP?

You'll need three different standalones, one for each platform. Since
the Mac versions will only run on Macs, having a resource fork is not a
problem. MetaCard will always create a resource fork for a Mac

Resource Mover dialog - if I DON'T move any resources, and my stack
uses items such as the "saving" stack, those will not be included, or
will it just include the entire mctools.mc, or will I need to
distribute it with the mctools.mc?
