rev online

[Peter Brigham]

Well, that's what *seemed* to be the thing to do, but the problem is  
that I don't have any stacks listed in that field at the bottom of  
the "My Space" panel -- it's empty, so I can't hilite any line. Am I  
supposed to do something to get that field populated with (I guess) a  
list of open stacks? Screenshot at:

It's not listed anywhere in the General category, where I supposedly  
posted it.
