    Ah-ha!  That may be the difference!   It is in a subroutine called
"empchk", but "empchk" is called by a couple of @WLF subroutines AND I see
it might be called during "esc-esc" processing IF the user is on screen 4:

(First 190 lines of esc-esc processing snipped)   

 191  -------   -   -   -
      þ If: @sn eq "4"
       Then: gosub empchk

[more lines snipped]

********************************  End of esc-esc processing ****************

472  -------   -   -   -
empchk þ If:
       Then: lookup comemp = empwh  k=rn   i=b -nx

      [snip lines] 

481  -------   -   -   -
      þ      If: 94 eq ""
       Then: screen 3 81; restart

     [snip lines]
 
     Then: return

     This is getting more interesting than I thought...

Thanks!
