Hi Andrew,

I created a button for myself whose script looks like this:

on mouseUp
  answer file "Open which stack?"  -- presents *all* files
  if it = empty then exit mouseUp
  toplevel it
end mouseUp

Once your stack is open, do a "Save As" under a different name. That way
MC will assign the correct Mac creator and filetype to it. If you just
do a "Save", MC won't assign the Mac-specific ID info to it.

HTH.
