Howdy,
Thank you to everyone who pointed me towards my solutions.
I still don't know exactly what is going on, but here are the
solutions I figured out after receiving your advice:
openstack not functioning
I just put in a new card with nothing on it (as the first card in
the stack). In it's handler I put in an "on idle" handler that does
nothing but issue "send 'mouseUp'" statements and then moves the user
to another card afterward (to a place where there is no "on idle"
handler).
text files not being written
The big problem was that text files were actually being written. I
just couldn't find them for a few minutes sometimes. Sometimes I'd
have to wait a very long time for the files to pop up on the screen.
My assumption was that the finder's ability to update every viewable
portion of the hard drive can take a lot of time. IOW, the file was
there, it was just that the finder hadn't moved in to update that
part of the screen yet. So, my workaround was to have all files be
saved to a folder on the desktop. Because the desktop is closer to
the top of the hierarchical structure, it is probably updated with
much greater frequency. I still don't know if this is a good
decision. It works though, so I'm happy.
Thanks again everybody.

Hi Jonathan,
Nice to see you here. Welcome to the Rev community.
I am pretty sure that something is wrong with the path. Note that Rev
paths don't use colons but slashes to delimit the components of the
path.
Do you see similar problems if you run the following script?
on foo
ask file "Save as..."
if it is not empty then
put it into myFile
open file myFile for write
write "some string" to file myFile
close file myFile
put "You can find your file at:" && myFile
end if
end foo
Best regards,
Mark Schonewille
