How to get feedback if a substack is opened

[Ray Horsley]

I wrote a tiny function for this a while ago which has worked fine for 
me:

function stackIsOpen stk
   set the wholeMatches to true
   put the openStacks into tmp
   if lineOffset(stk,tmp) = 0 then
     return false
   else return true
end stackIsOpen

Hope it works for you, too.
