I'm getting ready to distribute a Mac only standalone that has some stacks that I'll need to put into a folder within the Application support folder. Would it be a good choice to make my own installer program with Rev and suck up the App and all needed stacks into custom properties, then upon installation place things where I need?

I'll be using the splash screen style standalone along with with these various stacks, and there will be stacks that the user will create with the program - do I keep the .rev extension on these stacks or use something else? Are there rules or suggestions related to this? I assume that the "Document Type," "Document Extension" and "Signature" fields in the Standalone settings (OSX pane) are for this purpose, though I don't see anything about these in the docs, nor could I find anything on this elsewhere.

My current testing shows that stacks saved from my Rev built standalone and using the ".rev" extension show as "Metacard Stacks" when I get info on them, and the "Open with" menu shows a program that I downloaded some time back that was apparently created as a Metacard standalone . . . I do have other Rev created standalones on my drive but the Finder doesn't think they're the owner of my test stacks. Kinda strange . . .

At any rate, thanks for any input and suggestions.
