is it possible to put

on startup
   insert the script of stack "Foobar" into back
   open stack "aa"
   ...
end startup

somewhere so that startup is activated when you
click on the Revolution app icon in Finder?
that would be convenient!

Eric,

A minor addendum to Jan's suggestion. The following ritual works for me--employing a suggestion from Jeanne. Put the stack that is to masquerade as a home stack into the plug-in folder. Include in the stack script:

on openStack
insert the script of me into back
hide stack "MyPlugIn"
end openStack

After opening the current stack of interest I go to the Development/Plugins menu and select MyPlugIn. And there is the plugin acting as background home stack, out of sight and (lurking dangerously) out of mind. All relatively painless and, Jeanne tells us, to become more so in 2.0.

I wonder if it would work as well to load the plugin before all other stacks. Would its scripts then be available to all other loaded subsequently? I am unclear of exactly what the plugin would be in back of.

When you say: "insert the script of stack "myStack" into back" are those scripts then available only to the stack from which they were inserted, to all open stacks, to all stacks open subsequently, to attacks from al queda?

Theorem: All answers raise questions.

Jim
