You clone it. After cloning, the variable "it" contains a reference to the new object so that you can work with that new object. The clone is an independent stack that doesn't "belong" to any mainstack. It's name is generic. So next you set its name and mainstack properties (you must do these lines immediately, or the "it" variable may not hold the reference to the new stack):
clone stack "mySubstack"
set the name of it to "myNewClone" -- renames the stack
set the mainstack of it to "myMainStack" -- makes it a substackSave the main stack file and you're done.

I wish this was possible for cards as well as stacks and substacks.
Same thing, basically, only you don't need to assign a mainstack because new cards are automatically created in the same stack as the original:
clone this card set the name of it to "myNewCard"
Cloned cards are placed immediately after the original in the stack.
