shell-shrinks: preference variable

Default value: 1

Under DOS, this variable helps to determine the amount of memory available to any subprocess you run. If zero, Epsilon and the process share the available memory. If nonzero, Epsilon unloads itself from memory until you exit from the process, leaving only a small section of itself behind. When your program exits, Epsilon reloads itself, leaving you in exactly the same state as before the shrinking occurred.
