I would bug it. The engine itself seems generally reliable in this regard,
so it may be something in the interactions with the IDE. As an additional
data point, since 1997 I've only had one corrupted stack with MC, and in all
cases where a save was terminated (fatal error elsewhere in the system,
power outage, me doing something stupid) there was a "~" copy to work from.


I've run into a couple more instances of my project getting corrupted recently. Since I use altArchive plugin, I just have to look in my archive folder for the most recent non-corrupted stack. In this case however 3 of the archived stacks were corrupted also and I had to go back to the 4th archive stack. So whatever is happening, the IDE is continuing to work with the corrupted stack, allowing revArchive to make copies of it. This makes me uneasy. Just more data points if you are listening RR
