"Start using" adds the script to the existing library stacks in
memory. "Go" makes the target stack the default stack and shows it on
the screen (assuming it's visible). You've got a few options for
opening it in lurk mode: you could "go invisible" and just show the
stack when you want to; you could set the loc of the substack to
somewhere off-screen and bring it back when you wanted to show it, you
could just "go" to it when you wanted it on screen (no need to go at
any time before that), etc.
