Where is stack "foo"? What is your stack structure? Are all three of
these stacks in the same stack file or are they separate?
If they are separate, then you need to tell it where to find the
stack file containing "foo", either by setting the defaultFolder or
by providing the complete path to "foo".
HyperCard maintained a list of locations where you had stored stacks
and searched all of them in turn so it was hardly ever necessary to
locate a stack. Rev doesn't do this, you have to tell it where to
find things or tell it which folder to search.
