Button script for "save as"

You want to save a copy of your stack under another name?

   ask file "Save stack as:"
   put it into newName
   if newName is empty then exit to top
   save this stack as newName
   put the fileName of this stack into tCheck
   answer "Stack saved to file: " & tCheck

The revMenuBar uses this:
     revSaveAs the short name of the topStack,false

Cheers,
Sarah
