Sheep Shaver & XCMDs

[Joe Lewis Wilkins]

Thanks, Ken.

That is kind of what I recall, but wasn't sure. Now that I think  
about it, as my HCs got really sizable and doing a lot, I'd take  
entire start-using stack scripts, tweak them a bit and Compile-it  
them. That, after I'd already maxed out all of the allowable 10  
stacks. Worked better than stop-using one and start-using another.

Amazing how much we forget about what we've done.
