I would like to change the name of the default layer to the result of a dialog entry.

example: In the dialog the user has the choice of two words, "Silkscreen" or "Litho". Whatever the user chooses I would like the default document layer to be renamed in like. I then will need to call on this layer by name later in script.

note: Their has been a truckload of stuff already happening on this layer, so creating a layer is not an option at this point.

Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.
