So, if I understood well (last night was *very* short), the behavior should
be the following :
Ctrl-S :
if game number is 0 : save as a new game
if game number is not 0 : replace game
Ctrl-R :
if game number is 0 : save as a new game
if game number is not 0 : save as a new game
So, what does this mean ? Simply to swap the current menus : if game number
is not 0, we currently have :
Ctrl-R : replace game
Ctrl-S : add a new game
and we want (see above) :
Ctrl-R : save as a new game
Ctrl-S : replace game
To swap menus and shorcuts when users have been used to them for years,
even if the motivation is logical, may not be a good idea.
