Well, personally, I did like the Luxury shell a lot, because several
programs used winlib anyway, and it wasn't all that much bigger. However,
Now that I'm using the Standard shell, it's fine for me, and for friends,
too, because they're used to ZShell. However, that's entirely what I
liked about Usgard, is that if you don't like the GUI, and I do, you can
take it off and I can keep it. ;)
Also, I knew that Usgard 0.9 and 0.95 were betas, so that the final
version might not be compatible (although it *is* inconvenient). I'm very
happy with it, and I think that 1300 bytes is wonderful (although I use
the standard, not lite version). Also, USUL, the development language is
the best I've used (but maybe because the author puts in whatever
functions I've asked for <g>). Usgard will definately improve, but it's
already better than ZShell, if only for the size.
