That one's not Rev, it's Apple: With OS X Apple has decided to lie to the user, in the sense that they use a folder ("bundle") for what used to be a single executable file.

Given the convenience of being able to store libraries and such in the bundle I don't mind, but it was a hassle until I started using this AppPath function:

With that function I can refer to files relative to the mainstack of my app regardless of whether it's a standalone or a stack file, or whether it's a standalone on Win, Linux, or OS X.
