[WriteLog] Wish list??

To the wish list I would add, when typing a zone number that it OVERWRITES
the current zone in the window.  If zone is shown as 5 and I type a 4 then a
45 appears in the window.  I went back and cleaned these up but they are a
real pain in the heat of battle.  Seems also that an edit may be in order
for an "invalid" zone such as this.
