By the way, a word of some caution, there is a subtle difference in the
way the SETLL and READE works when you're using only one key, depending
on whether you (1) define a KLIST with only one key in the list and use
that KLIST, or (2) use the single key value as the key, not as a KLIST.

Don't throw things at me, but I don't remember what it was, but it got
me once.

IIRC, I ran into a problem with a file with multiple key fields where
I used *zero on a SETLL and wanted it to apply to just the first key
field, but it applied to all of the key fields and did not position me
to where I want to be. (Probably the second key field was character.)
IIRC, I ended setting the first key field to *zero, then doing SETLL
with the field.
