Can a substack become the mainstack and the mainstack become its substack?

Thanks Geoff, doing the sub-stacks first did the trick.  All seems to work
well.

Thanks Brian for the suggestion, I will check it out.

The point of this was to be able to put my project on github and view code
as text. I was just unable to set the script of my main stack which has all
the code on it. The splash screen/stack does the job, enables me to load
scripts and apply them from external files before the other stacks open and
run.

Cheers & thank you.
