This, however, does work ok:

Now I understand why the previous poster (I'm bad with names) was doing like this
#!/usr/local/bin/mc start using stack "some.rev"
That is the direction I would explore.
I have noticed that 'send' does work. The engine does not quit until there is no handler running and there are no messages in pending messages. This could be handy for those things that cannot be done in startup. And for allowing library messages to execute.
I would expect 'open' to have trouble, but I have not run the experiment. Also on my list of experiments is 'start using' a stack with an external.
The above example is outside a script. Does that really work?
I think Bill Vlahos talked many months ago about the problems with using a Revolution stack as a deamon; perhaps this would mitigate those problems.
3) The 2.1 command-line/CGI engines are not available?
Perhaps these are under policy review. There was also a question earlier about unix engines which I assume double as command-line/CGI engines. I hope RunRev does not become too concerned about these.
