Eric,
Thanks for your thoughts and observations. I'm still exploring the
problem. It's obvious, I think, that there is some confusion some place.

Hello,
Doesn't it just copy the file that is inside the "application
bundle folder/Contents/MacOS" folder?
The defaultFolder for a MacOS standalone is the same as the above
folder (something that I ever found strange) and not the actual
folder containing the application bundle.
Best,

Jacque, thanks for the thoughts. I'm trying something else first,
since I think I just confused the compiler with the parameters
provided from the dialog I was using. If I can't, I'll try as
you've suggested. It makes some sense. File names are so touchy!

Hi All,
You've got to hand it to me. I DO have the weirdest things happen.
I saved a Standalone. I opened the Mac OSX version. Played with
it a bit, then decided I wanted to save a copy. So I selected
the Save A copy As... with the following handler in the File menu:
case "Save A Copy As..."
answer folder "Select destination folder for backup: "
if the result is "Cancel" then exit menupick
revCopyFile (the effective fileName of this stack), it
break
Then I went looking to see if the changes I'd made were actually
saved, but lo and behold a PC exe version was where the saved
copy should have been.
Any thoughts?
I can't say I've ever tried to save a copy of a standalone from
within itself. But are you sure it's a PC executable? Or does the
Finder just think it is, and is assigning the wrong icon? I'm
betting that the creator/type codes weren't set, and the Finder
has no idea what kind of file that is.
I'm also wondering if you actually got an executable file, or
just a copy of the main stack. Are the file sizes on disk the
same between the two copies? If they are the same, then you might
be able to use a creator/type editor to change the type to "APPL"
and you'd be in business.
