Does it work on a large stack?
It might be problematic with a stack of any size since the date returns
a value that contains "/", which is used as a path delimiter on OS X and
Linux.
What does "the result" give you after the save command?
If instead of changing the path of the current stack what you're looking
to do is make a copy of it to a new location, I'd make a copy of the
file itself and leave the in-memory stack alone.
