These should be:
go to stack "B"
close stack "A"

The problems are worse than just getting the syntax of the opening and
closing commands right, at least on X11 systems: Different window
managers position windows differently, and so it's likely that "B"
won't appear in the same place as "A". MetaCard 2.1.1 has a
workaround for this:
go to stack "B" in window of stack "A"
