   The following information was given to me by the former chairman of the
local user group's languages SIG:

   In order to run an program written in Action!, you have to either have the
Action! cartridge plugged in, or you have to have purchased special software
(another $99?) to tweak it into stand-alone executable mode, i.e. in order 
for anyone else to run your Action! programs.

  Since I don't have first-hand information on this, and haven't seen anything
about it in any other follow-ups, could somebody with an Action! package confirm
or deny this?
