Much of what HC used to do can be done in Rev, without having to type 
DoMenu.

The save command will do what you need here:

   save stack "StackName"

or

   save this stack


You could have an auto-save like HC's with something like this on your 
stack script or in a library if you want it for all your stacks (check 
out Rev's Plugins - they're easy to make):

   on closeCard
      save this stack
      pass closeCard
   end closeCard

   on closeField
     save this stack
     pass closeField
   end closeField

Are there any other events that triggered HC's save?
