<< So "Save the Quit-To" !!! >>
I'm not sure if quit to counts as a kludge or not, but I can say it has saved 
me a LOT of hassles since I started using it. I'm using it slightly 
differently than it was originally explained to me, but it works.
When I use the  to run the program, I use a common command file that just has 
a series of case statements then a run, then quit to the calling file, such 
as:

Case 1
  run (command file name)
  quit to calling command file
break
Case 2
  run (command file name)
  quit to calling command file
Break
Etc, etc, 

As I understand it, it was supposed to be a quit to at the end of every 
command file. This is a lot quicker, and doesn't seem to cause any problems. 
This method keeps all of my OLD command files with a return at the end of the 
file working with no changes, and is independent of what ever command file 
calls it. 
It allows me to use a common command file as a menu system, and I only need 
to maintain one command file for each menu system. By creating a generic menu 
program, a global search and replace for the quit to, and I can have it 
running in just a few minutes.
Just my $.02 worth
