So, I have many programs with code that, when adding new records, reads
something like this:

Then: input popup yn "Do You Want to Exit? (y/N) " default "N"
  If: yn="Y"
Then: delete; exit
  If:
Then: screen ,(@fd)

Are you saying that I don't need the 'delete'?
My experience has been that if I don't add a 'delete', blank records get
created and saved to disk.
Or are you saying that the 'exit' terminates the processing and the records
gets added at that time?
However, the 'delete' is ahead of the 'exit' so what gets deleted if the
record does not exist?

rclerk 5.0.14RN9  triggers a freechain every single time if the take 'close'
out.
