i also have another comment for a 'better' shell.. i have shared this
with ppl on irc.
the Shell should be divided by two things, ASM programs and BASIC
programs. ie.. PRESS F1 to list all ASM programs..   F2 for all Basic
programs.. etc.. and they should be alphabetized.. if it is possible. 

and there should be a standard as to how to put the title for the asm
program.. ie only pacman and like one other program shows the "title"
(PacMan 98 v.blahblah) in ASHELL... some kind of standard should be made.
