Yeah, selecting the current window (actually, stdin) before closing a path to
another window has always been the method used to return to the parent window.
This was the same in Level II CoCo windows.  I pointed this out in my skeleton
program a few years ago.

Glad to see someone else has 'discovered' this (grin).
