Frank, that's useful advice. Will save me some head scratching until 
they fix it.

 I want to write some prefs to a prefs file in the users library folder
 (this is OS X)
Try this and see what you get:
on savePrefs
 put file:  specialFolderPath(Preferences)  /MyPrefs into fName
 ANSWER THE RESULT -- see what the engine tells you
 put thePrefs into URL fName
end savePrefs

This works fine in theIDE, but not at all in the standalone. The file 
is simply not updated.

Any ideas?
Thanks

  if the platform is MacOS then
put specialFolderPath(preferences) into regStatGoPath
put regStatGoPath  /text.txt into stashAdX
  end if
  if there is a file stashAdX then
answer Yes, there is a file
put URL (binfile:  stashAdX) into temp
put compress(temp) into hipR
put base64Encode(hipR) into URL (binfile:  stashAdX)
end if
or:
 put URL (file:  stashAdX) into temp
 put temp into URL (file:  stashAdX)
HTH,
Mark

Thanks Richard and Mark.
Further investigation following your suggestions shows that the problem 
is not what I thought. In fact the special folder path stuff works 
fine, it's the XML stuff that builds the prefs that's screwing up. 
Since it works fine in the IDE , and I'm including the XML library in 
the standalone build, I'm still mystified...

Further investigations
Thanks,
Mark Smith

Following on, I remembered seeing something on the list about Rev 2.5 
not building correctly, so I built the standalone with Rev 2.2.

Hey presto! All works.
This seems to suggest that 2.5 is not attaching libraries properly, (or 
at all). Has this been bugzilla'd?

Thanks for the suggestions,

You can manually copy the external into the 'externals' dir in the same 
loc as the standalone (windows/UNIX) or in the Contents/MacOS folder 
inside the bundle for OS X.
