None of my programs use anything that Usgard has in it.. Therefore my
programs wouldn't be any smaller if I used usgard!

OS/7.. It's the smallest shell released.. I like the author's attitude,
though.. Just made it for himself, released it, and doesn't give a shit
if people use it or not (unlike certain OTHER shellmakers out there..)

None of my programs NEED to use external variables..

Oh, so just because I don't use what Usgard has in it my programs are
strange?
Don't any of you read the messages? My comment was that the Shell that
is best for a programmer all depends on what he programs, and has
nothing to do with his competence!! But a whole bunch of you seem stuck
on thinking that what you prefer HAS to be best for everyone!!
