Also shows if you already worked this country or zone on what band. The window disappears automagically as soon as the input field is empty, or if something interesting happens.

---

:exit
Leaves the program. Removes the tx queue (txfile) and the temporary files. This does not happen if you leave tlf with Ctrl-C, but tlf handles this correctly at restart. No qso's are forgotten, the score is kept, as well as the most important parameters. (Test it anyway ;-))
