DoomRL has, like many roguelikes, a so called "Perma save" system. That means that saving is ONLY intended if you gotta stop somewhere and wanna continue your game another time. If you DIE, your savegame is erased. People who copy their savegame to prevent it from being erased are Savescummers.

Right but how do I close the window and then continue my game where I left off. Whenever I close it and open it again I'm only given the option to start a new game.

No, except from the combat shotgun "pumping shells into chamber" (Which is not really reloading anyway) reloading always happens manually, so pay attention to that.
EDIT: There IS an exception though on second thought. If you choose the trait "Shottyman", your shotguns will be reloaded automatically after each move.

Does that atake up an extra turn? Also, my combat shotgun doesnt pump automatically.
ParaSait:
1) If you start the game, it's practically already ereased; If you want to load your game, make it so that you save the game on a stairs, then you go back to main menu. Then, press EXIT. Just closing the window by pressing the X is NOT good.
3) No, it does not take an extra move. Otherwise it would theoretically be a pretty useless trait =)
BTW: I don't get what you mean with question 2?

If you don't want to fire, hit esc to cancel it.

Or, if you're targeting yourself, you can just press 'f' one more time.
