This has been informative. IDEUserMainStacks() is exactly what I want, I
don't care about substacks at the moment.
With four or five different ways to get the info, I think all bases are
covered. Many thanks to those who have the courage to dig through the
IDE scripts.

If you just want a list then:
ideUserMainStacks
will provide part of what you are looking for (no sub stacks in my brief
test).
If you want substacks too, then use:
revLoadedStacks

Funny you should mention that. I thought about doing this, but then I have to
think about checking to see if the file is open somewhere else. In some cases
it would work though. As an aside, I noticed yesterday that modifying a file on

If you have the path and filename, you could create a subfolder "temp" just for
the purpose of reading the details of a single file.
## THIS IS NOT A SCRIPT -- LOL
move the file into "temp".
get the detailed fiiles.
move the file from "temp" back to where you got it from.

I think you will have to perform several operations here:
1. convert Hex number to Binary number.
2. find Complement of Binary number.
3. convert Complement to Decimal number.
Your "main problem" is that YOU have to work out the algorhythm to
get the complement as LiveCode does not have that
Two's complement is a mathematical operation on binary numbers, best known for
its role in computing as a method of signed number representation. For this
reason, it is the most important example of a radix complement.
The two's complement of an N-bit number is defined as its complement with

Well, unless you can explain to me what "2s Complement" means I cannot
help you.
