I guess we are getting to the point if "life" begins at the first line of 
main() or not. I agree that there was nothing to save, but I think that 
the original message, although pointed this out incorrectly, really meant 
to say "don't exit() the program". An example of a text browser that 
exhibits this behavior is links; e.g. "links oooopppp" does not exit() the 
program.

:) (If it's important enough, someone will offer a patch to improve it).

Yep, unless the person requesting it does not have the ability to code, in 
which case the request is done to those who know the code.
