+This means that userspace applications must be assembled with a proper `.org`,

+The `.org`, it is not specified by glue code of the apps themselves. It is

+That a userspace is called also means that an application, when finished
+running, is expected to return with a regular `ret` and a clean stack.
 
 Whatever calls the userspace app (usually, it will be the shell), should set
 HL to a pointer to unparsed arguments in string form, null terminated.

 Apps in Collapse OS are design to be ROM-compatible, that is, they don't write
 to addresses that are part of the code's address space.

+By default, apps set their RAM to begin at the end of the binary because in
+most cases, these apps will be ran from RAM. If they're ran from ROM, make sure
+to set `USER_RAMSTART` properly in your `user.h` to ensure that the RAM is
