Peter,
I think a common variation is to have a standalone application (which
most "long-timers" try to put minimal code into), a "program main
stack" (perhaps with substacks) which can also be a stack file that
the standalone loads first to establish the interface (and doesn't
need to be saved), and data files which can also be substacks. Then
just the data substacks need to be involved with the save process.
Keeping the data separate from the everything else has been consistent
advice on this list.

Yes, very true. This is, now its pointed out, obviously the

source of my power off/saving problem. Its also an argument against
using
the traditional splash stack and then a real program + data stack,

not? One should rather have a program main stack, and then data
substacks.
No need ever to save the program stack since it never changes, just
save the
data stacks as changed. Is this what you usually do?

with user's data in the same file. And I think it important.
