In case anyone is interested, here is one way to crash the 4.6.1 IDE in
Windows 7 so bad that you can't even switch to the running instance of Task
Manager: add to your resizeStack handler a reference to a non-existing
control, then in the Run mode try to resize the stack. Works every time.

Which reminds me of a question I saw that no one has answered: when you've
accidentally created an infinite loop in a handler, is there a secret key
press to abort all scripts? Thanks,

Slava
