Thanks Richard
I am sure I probably read it in the signup dpcs or somewhere but then
having it all be new it is easy to be learning things I don't need
and in
fact can't use in that way.

As for uploading the engine file which I assume is the executable
renamed to revolution
I was simply transferring it using the webdisk like I would move
files on my hard drive.
What is the proper way to install it?
Is this on your On-Rev account?
If so, I don't believe you need to install the Rev CGI at all; it
should be pre-installed, so all you'd need is the path to the
engine, which should be described in your signup docs or online
help for On-Rev.
If not, what is webdisk? If it's an FTP client, does it offer a
choice between text and binary transfer modes?
I've seen some FTP clients read the first few bits of the Rev
engine, see that it's ASCII, and try to use text mode, which will
convert line endings which may be fine for text files but will
break the engine, since of course the engine's object code is binary.
