same with send "ResizeStack"

I posted a mail to this respect some time ago... 

the trick is to

on tabkey
   dotabkey
end tabkey

on dotabkey
  the script here
end dotabkey

send dotabkey...

and that works!
Note that if you do this with a stackinuse or frontscript and try to debug 
the 
doresizestack, you may crash rev (as usual) ;)

cheers
