Hi Marty,
There's the physical filename of a stack (on disk) and the logical name of the
stack (a property) - when you rename a .rev or .livecode file, its internal
name remains. Which means that opening the copy inside the LiveCode IDE will
pop up a warning.
While you could use the MetaCard IDE to take apart revtools.rev, wouldn't it be
simpler to dissect it inside the LiveCode IDE itself? Turn on 'LiveCode UI
elements in lists' from the 'View' menu, open the Application browser, hunt
down the RevTools stack, and take a peek at its innards.
