I have a stack in a standalone that needs to be saved to disk, so I copy it to a writeable location (preferences) on first launch. I also have a backscript that is inserted when the mainstack opens.

This works in the IDE but in a standalone, the writeable stack can't find the backscript and throws errors ("handler not found.") I believe the backscript should always be in the message path once it's been inserted, regardless of where the current stack is located. Stacks that are included in Copy Files and are not moved have no problem with the backscript.

Has anyone seen this?

It may be related to another problem I've found: specialFolderPath("resources") returns the folder the writeable stack is in, even in a standalone. I expect that in the IDE but shouldn't a standalone always reference the resources folder in the app?
