What I mean there is to insert the name of the stack you are  
currently in, for example, the stack you are working in is called  
"myStack" then use:

     go stack "myOtherStack in window "myStack"

You could also make it more generic by using:

     go stack "myOtherStack" in window the short name of this stack
