usage of "this"

[Alex Rice]

I was just hunting down this bug in my program, and it seems counterintuitive what I discovered. In this code, the value of "this stack" changes even before the handler finishes! That's surprising for some reason. I don't know why I though "this" was consistend through a handler. What other handlers or functions in rev can cause "this" to change like this?

if tCalcType is not empty then
go to first card of stack tCalcType as toplevel
-- close the the current... the stack we were just in.
-- close this stack -- nope; "this stack" has now changed!
close stack "FacilityCalculator"
end if
