Hi, Good points. I'd like to slightly differ on that though: Most of this comes from how these files are structured. The conversion process from non-KeyWord type to KeySoft type not only translates from one grade to another, but also adds special markers and other useful data to the file. As for Zach's post, as Alex said, pressing ENTER would actually skip "review options" prompt altogether until you open the file again. As for losing data, there is a story behind it (somewhat of a non-trivial one): When you work with open files, you are working with another copy of the file in question. The original copy is still located on a storage device and the "active" copy is stored on physical memory. This may sound odd, but it makes sense, since computers need to load the file to RAM before opening it. As a consequence, when you quit a document, the resulting changes will not be saved, since the storage device version of the file would not have been modified. The only time the storage device version would be modified is when you actually save the file (either via "save" command or exiting the program). I'll rrite a detailed explanation on the next post. Hope this helps. Cheers, Joseph

I agree with Zachary Dreicer. The user is constantly forced to answer a prompt that is not wanted 95% of the time. And if you one time accidentally exit without answering, you lose your newly edited data altogether, not good.
