John;
I like this idea.  I never thought of it, but then, I'd never do a return
anywhere but at the bottom of the cycle anyway.  And if I was at the
bottom of the cycle and LR was on, or set on, why would I add in a RETRN? 
I will admit to writing
     C             MOVE  *ON         *INLR
     C  NLR       RETRN                              though.

I think perhaps I need a standard sub-routine for *INLR time, to FREE all
progams called.  I don't like 500-line plus programs, so I tend to write
scads of small callable programs.

damn, sometimes I learn things I didn't want to know.  

Thanks to both John and Charlie.
