Ah. Thanks for the clarification. Not a one-click solution, then, but definitely a help. I have a couple of stack systems that I use, one derived from the other, each a little different, and up to now I have been closing one (with destroystack = true) and opening the other, when I want to copy some scripts from one to the other. Ultimately I need to change the stack names to unique titles -- and all the references to them in the scripts -- so I can keep both stack files in memory at once when I need to. I will check out Eric's utility.

Hi Peter,

No, you misunderstood, probably because I was unclear. If Changed Code
Picker actually changed stacks, it would be a PITA for everyone. ;-)

In order for Changed Code Picker to work, it clones the reference stack (Stack 1) and renames the clone in memory only. Nothing is changed to disk. This then allows the stack you want to compare to and change (Stack 2) to be loaded into memory (actually this stack is cloned and renamed also, but only in memory). Changed Code Picker makes no changes to your actual stacks on disk, either Stack 1 or Stack 2. But this allows comparing two versions of
identically named stacks.

Only you can change Stack 2 by requesting it be sent to your editor (either the Rev editor or GLX2) and manually making a change and manually saving from your editor. In this case, the actual stack (Stack 2) is loaded into your editor and is saved under whatever it was originally named and is the
same as if you loaded only that stack, edited it, and saved it.

Aloha from Hawaii,

Jim Bufalini

Does this mean that Changed Code Picker handles changing all the
references to the stack names in all the scripts? That's the real
PITA, for me.
