How to Deadlock MC and get out of it...

[xbury.cs at clearstream.com]

I found a way to deadlock MC and get out of it without loosing your work (as
usual)...

To dead lock:
I have a script that runs a few tasks (including some external programs),
and then reports in a dialog (answer) the time it took. While waiting for
the script to finish, I inadvertendly clicked on a tab button on my stack.
What happened is that the script finished, displayed the dialog and the
click event on the tab button got caught and my answer window was now behind
the stack and couldn't be reached (you'll hear a horrible beep to remind you
of these bugs)... You can't close your stack, can't move it, can't alt-tab
to it, nothing works! (%*@(*$

To get out of this you need a stack that 1) was previously opened!, 2)
displays the windows, 3) will switch to that window (eventough the answer
window is a dialog... it works - nothing else did...).

Naturally you can close any other window from MC except you stack's! 
But it's the only solution I found before throwing my PC out the window!

Hope it helps...
Scott, can you fix this? It's happened more than one to me, luckily my
Xtools manager is always there to help, but Im sure others aren't as
lucky...
