At a guess - I haven't looked - so that there's a GAME_INFO header
record to hang the subsequent moverecords to. Probably if you create
one, you have everything ready for edit mode (you'll want to remove it
if the user exits edit mode without doing anything). Otherwise, what
will you do with the Set-board record you're generating?
