RE: LZ: Zshell 4.5



Ugh, I wouldn't want to have to plow through lists of libs when I wanted to 
run a program. Make a seperate "libs" listing in ZShell 4.5.

Instead of just one or two large libraries, there can be a diffferent 
library for each routine (then it wouldn't really be called a 
"library").  Each "library" would be stored as a diffferent variable. 
 The library should show up on the ZShell menu and then when executed 
it will just display it's version number.  The code in the library 
will only be accessible from other programs.
