Getting Library Stacks into Memory

[J. Landman Gay]

I seem to remember inserting the script of a stack into back at some point 
in the past. I know for sure you can start using the stack which is 
effectively the same thing.

The main thing is that you don't need to "go" there to load the stack into 
RAM. Just putting it in use does that, as does accessing any property.  
Referring to it in almost any way loads it. The one exception I can think 
of is "there is a file" which only reads the file directory. But "there is 
a stack" does load it, because LC needs to open and read the file to 
ascertain its structure.
