Hello computer people-

This is yet another stack program to waste space.  This program is unique
in that it displays 8 lines of the stack.  I hear you say "that's not
unique."  Ok I forgot to mention it also displays the full status area.

This was a fast hack last night but I thought it was neat.  How I do it is
I created a UFL small font but made it one pixel row shorter then the FNT1
(5 instead of 6).  I made the font as a viewer font to display thirteen
rows of text but didn't much like it.  So not knowing how to make a stack
replacement myself I used BLIND a program written by Mika H. and just
changed the display.  I included the super small font within the program
itself so there is no need to change the UFL and then back again in five
minutes after you play with my program. 

I have included the super small font in the zip package if anybody would
like to see it.   Or use ED with it.  The font included in the program is
exactly the same font so there is one nibble wasted per character.  What
are you going to do.  Also note some of the funny characters I never
bothered to change (why waste my time).

NATE
