Uhhh.... there is no ZShell for the 82. The 82 has no Custom
menu, and so has no way of jumping to a piece of code outside of the ROM.
This makes programs such as ZShell impossible. ZBasic and UM are addons
for the 85 that are started / enabled from inside ZShell and then used to
activate programs while outside. Assembly is 85/83/92 only. Sorry. :(
