Cloning stacks

[Ken Ray]

Wierd, Sarah, because I have the same OS and Rev, and it works for me.
Perhaps there are messages being trapped somewhere? Can you try to do this:

1) Open Rev and create a new stack with a name of "Tester" and a label of
"Hello". Save it
2) type "clone this stack" into the message box and hit return

Do you get a copy called "Copy of Tester" or "Hello"?
