Burger Joint made me redownload this game and join

First of all! I'm Zachski. Longtime gamer, I used to lurk about the ZZT scene, and later the Megazeux scene. I never did anything of note, so no one here should actually remember me. In fact, I don't think I ever really *posted* anywhere, not even on the old AOL boards.
And now, on to the topic at hand.
Ah, I remember playing Burger Joint as a young teenager.
I remember getting stumped with dealing with the bully and having to check several objects in the editor before figuring out what I needed to do
Watching videos on it again has put me in the ZZT mood. Not even a Megazeux mood - I might work with that again but more likely I'll just nostalgia binge.
So! With that out of the way, I should get to making a game. Golly, I feel like I'm basically having to learn this from scratch again. I mean, it's been about 13-15 years, so it makes sense.
Which toolkit should I download? I figure I should at least download the supertoolkit. What about all of these external programs?
And, uh, is there a good online dictionary of ZZT-OOP commands?
I don't even know *what* I want to make anyways, I just want to make something simple and yet entertaining.
ETA: Browsing the site some more, I see that there's links to information in the "Help" section of z2! That'll be very useful. Sorry I didn't find it before making this topic
