Yes, well, just because you don't use those features doesn't make them
junk, nor useless.  I don't use any sprite routines in my Usgard program
but they are very useful to others.  Those features just aren't relevent.
And Usgard 1.1 doesn't even need a shell.  That cuts out 300 bytes.  The
entire thing can be customized for as much (I like Windows Shell) or as
little (that no-shell thing is cool!) as you want.
