Richmond, The problem with Hypercard and xTalk is for many they represent non-professional approaches to programming. That's why I never mention either when talking about Rev. Others who are reading this thread, Also, I think of Rev as more than just a scripting language for the following

If you're trying to stop the standalone from autoloading any of Rev's custom libs then perhaps putting this script on cd 1 of the mainstack: on startUp -- DO YOUR OWN STUFF HERE exit to top end startUp that *might* work-- I haven't tested it. I'm assuming the startUp message is accessed

Hey all, just bought a brand spanking new Vista 64-bit machine. Rev *seems* to run OK, but for some reason the message box is hosed. Anyone have any ideas? If I put into msg: put hello I get empty. I try on other Vista machines and it works...any ideas why not on this one?
