RE: Save file exclusively locked when displaying?

Why know why? To decide if you can still view it and not lock it?
To me this sounds like when my MIL asks me why I didn't do something. We all know the question is irrelevant.

If you want to decide if you can do something about it I guess you can write a command exit point program that when someone runs DSPSAVF that it spawns off a timer task which gets rather rude with them if the lock doesn't release in a set amount of time.

If it didn't lock it, it would freak me out if the contents of DSPSAVF suddenly changed while I was paging through it.
