if the first character of a VAT entry is changed for a zshell string the
program can still be run under zshell but will be invisible to the
calculators functions. i know this is true because i wrote bad code
before :( and it messed with the vat entries so that some of them had _
or other symbols that are not allowed in varible names and the files
were invisible to the MEM DELETE SRTING menu. after i get some time i
will work on a program to do this.
