There is a reason for this.  The "ZShell" you see in the custom menu is simply
a pointer to the ZShell string, and it sees the right part that says ZShell in
it, and displays that.  When you delete the ZShell string, other things move
there, and the calc tries to display that.  I can't explain this part exactly
why, but when you then try to run what is where zshell was, it locks up because
it isn't program instructions.
