Hey, in Rev Studio 3.5, if I try and double click on a stack when Rev is
already open I get a dialog that states, "Unable to open stack: stack is
corrupted, check for ~ backup file."
The funny thing is, these stacks are not corrupted. If I open them by using

Hi. I've been playing around with sockets. I'm attempting to create a stack

When using an answer dialog from within a resume handler, the
defaultstack becomes "answer dialog", yet, when using an answer dialog
in other handlers, the defaultstack does NOT become "answer dialog".
I've tested this in both OS X and Windows XP and it does it in both.
Is this a bug?
