I wouldn't know this because I'm not a beta tester. Making a shell takes a
lot of effort and knowledge of the 82 backup file. I took the initiative
to take a shell apart to see what it looks like. Once I've got the code
commented, and I figure out how to create pointers in the VAT and put those
pointers/variables into TI-BASIC code, I'll be able to write MY OWN shell
from scratch (which will be based solely on a game engine...so the current
code won't be any good except for the VAT entries and TI-BASIC code to
enter the shell). Besides, Kouri and Evil Sam and anyone else, you want to
write your own shell too...why not start with a base and work up from
there? Beginner shell writers have no idea where to start or how to code
one, so they need some type of example. I need the routines anyway for
OShell-82 and OS-82 to make ASH/CrASH code easy to port to those shells.

I didn't think it would take as long as it did. I would've loved to use
DASM, but I tried it once or twice and only got garbage from it. BTW, I
_knew_ someone was going to comment about SQRXZ when I sent the message.
