When clicking on a palette item, how does Rev know what stack you were in?

[Sarah Reichelt]

Check the docs for the topStack. It tells you the front most window 
with the lowest mode, where normal stack windows have a mode of 1. 
(Read the docs entry for mode to get further details.)

Cheers,
Sarah
