Hi, I recently wrote this code which works fine....
on savenotes
modeless stack "save"
save this stack
wait 360 millisecs
close stack "save"
end savenotes
when i went back to document it I stumbled across a sort of confusion in my
understand....
on savenotes
modeless stack "save" -- opens a new stack "save" as a modeless window
save this stack -- saves "this" stack. Which stack is "this" (save or
notepad)?
wait 360 millisecs
close stack "save"
end savenotes
I suddenly realized that I was using the "save this stack" command with 2
stacks open, the primary stack called "notepad" and a secondary stack called
"save".
It appears that rev knows "which is which" even thought from the code it is
quite confusing. Would it be better to say "save stack notepad" instead?
Thanks
