...there's the inconsistency between "the windows" (where it doesn't appear) and '"is there a window "answer dialog"'> where it does.
I think this may be a case where attempting compatibility with another xTalk may have unexpected consequences:
In Transcript, a "window" is a different entity than a stack; indeed one can open a stack in the window of another stack.
In SuperCard, the function "windows()" returns a list of open window objects, which in that xTalk roughly equate to what a substack is in Transcript.
So when MetaCard added support for "windows()" for the benefit of SuperCard users, it created a case of mixed metaphors in attempting to use "window" and "stack" as synonyms, which is the case with "if there is a window..." (functionally the same as "if there is a stack").
