I know its off subject, sort of, but the assembly version of chess for
the Hp-48 stands at around 10k.  It's biggest problem is speed (you can
only do so much with a calculator processor;), but I understand its a
fairly worthy opponent.  The Z-shell version should be comparable in
size, and even with th Z-shell overhead, there should be plenty of room.
