If you need to load one huge program, use ZShell, since that is the
current standard, and very small. (The only prog you can't use usgard
(see later) with is McMik)

Otherwise, just use usgard. If you need the ram space, (usually the
case), just get the smaller versoin. Looks like ZShell, but supports
BOTH ZShell and Usgard. ZShell is the standard, and usgard is
beginning to replace it. usgard essentially allows libraries.. kinda
like the DLL principle in win95. ZShell doesn't.
