My program of fixes (now under weigh) is:
1) Rename the current file on the FTP server with a "zip" suffix. Have unwitting subjects download it and see what happens.Transfer said renamed fake zip via disk and try to open. Probably won't work, but would tell a lot if one or both did.
Not recommended, unless you are looking for a new source of frustration.
2) Actually compress the file with Stuffit, replace the old file on the server, proceed as above.Transfer said genuine zip via disk and try to open. I figure, slightly better chance of success?
Better than slightly. For me, it works every time.
3) Reinstall Revolution, re-download Win32, rebuild everything, zip, proceed as above.
Should not be required, though people have solved problems this way.
4) Transfer the stack file to some Windows machine somewhere running Revolution and build the thing. Has to succeed, no? But we would learn nothing.
Do you have virtual PC on your Mac? Try running your Windows executables there, or indeed, building from there.
5) Flunk the 80 percent of the students in the course who are using Windows, on the grounds that their work is incomplete. Attractive in its way.
Well, they certainly would learn *something* from that experience.
Keep in mind, this is NOT an insurmountable issue. Lots of us make Windows builds from our Macs every day, with no special tricks or unspoken know-how. We'll figure it out.
