Thank you. This was very helpful as I did not know where
revDeleteFolder, etc, was. In any case, ("revCommonLibrary" is in the
backscripts) return false in the standalone (and, of course, true in the
IDE)
I will test under later versions of 6.7.x, but at the moment we don't
want to move off 676 unless we absolutely have to. I may just check if
the environment is development and if not open and start using
revcommonlibrary.livecodescript and the library to out folder of file
that go with the app.
