Do you need to go cross-platform? How good do you need the protection to 
be?

I was thinking that you may be able to use a scriptable encryption 
program on OSX to secure your stack between use, although it would still 
be accessible during the time it was decrypted and in use.

A stream encryptor would remove the accessible-file problem, so the data 
was stored in a file and decrypted only in memory for insertion in an 
empty stack at startup (if that is where you need to have it). I do not 
know immediately of any stream encryptors useable by Rev unless you 
write a basic one yourself although I am sure they are out there (at 
least as a set of algorithms). It seems a popular field for writing 
free- and shareware.

Sorry about the "thoughts" rather than "answers" nature of the response.

regards
David
