:SMALL should also create a smaller version for the install floppies.
:But if code is shared (as you suggested) with the external version, it
:wouldn't make a difference for the crunched binaries on the floppies.
Actually, all of test's subroutines - except main.c which the floppy
generator renames - would be multiply defined in the resultant binary.
It might just be a matter of putting
#if !defined(SHELL) || (defined(SHELL) && !defined(SMALL))
around all of test's routines except main()/testcmd()
