[COMPILER]
* NEW: Support for the new PEEK instruction.
[INTERPRETER]
* NEW: PEEK is a new instruction that peek some bytes from a stream without removing them, so that they are available to the next READ instruction.
* OPT: IsAscii(), IsLower(), IsPunct()... instructions are now a bit faster.
[INTERPRETER]
* NEW: WAIT NEXT is a new instruction that waits for the next event and process it.
[COMPILER]
* NEW: Support for the new WAIT NEXT instruction.
[GB.GTK]
* NEW: Support for the new WAIT NEXT instruction.
[GB.GTK3]
* NEW: Support for the new WAIT NEXT instruction.
[GB.QT4]
* NEW: Support for the new WAIT NEXT instruction.
[GB.QT5]
* NEW: Support for the new WAIT NEXT instruction.
[INTERPRETER]
* NEW: OPEN NULL is a new syntax that opens a null stream. Reading always returns end of file, and writing does nothing except advancing the file pointer, allowing to know how many bytes were written.
[COMPILER]
* NEW: OPEN NULL is a new syntax that opens a null stream.
[COMPILER]
* BUG: Allow static arrays to be used with the point operator.
[INTERPRETER]
* BUG: Fix static array management. They are not read-only anymore. Only methods that want to modify the size of the array are forbidden, as well as the ReadOnly property.
[COMPILER]
* BUG: Fix compilation of function calls with variable arguments passing.
* BUG: Remove some useless structure packing directives.
[INTERPRETER]
* BUG: Fix compilation of function calls with variable arguments passing.
[COMPILER]
* NEW: Don't emit debugging information for generated functions, but emit void sections for backward compatibility.
* NEW: Don't emit source file path in the debugging information.
[COMPILER]
* NEW: Add ByRef annotations to the ".info" files generated by the compiler. The name of "ByRef" method arguments is now prefixed with a '&' character.
[COMPILER]
* OPT: Some optimizations in symbol table routines.
* NEW: Emit column position in almost all error messages. It makes the compiler 2.5% slower, even with the optimizations.
[CONFIGURATION]
* NEW: Update version to 3.13.90.
[DEVELOPMENT ENVIRONMENT]
* NEW: Redone extra references support.
[COMPILER]
* NEW: Take project extra references into account.
[GB.TERM.FORM]
* BUG: Fix project description.
[COMPILER]
* NEW: Assert is an new instruction that raises an error as soon as its boolean argument is FALSE. The associated bytecode is not emitted if the '-x' option is specified.
[INTERPRETER]
* NEW: Assert is an new instruction that raises an error as soon as its boolean argument is FALSE.
[GB.DEBUG]
* BUG: Fix a potential array overflow.
[COMPILER]
* NEW: Allow loop variables to be declared inside the loop syntax.
* NEW: Consequently, FOR EACH now can only use local variables.
[INTERPRETER]
* OPT: A little optimization of integer loops. They are about 5% faster now.
[COMPILER]
* NEW: Allow local variable declaration anywhere in the function. The local symbol still has a function scope, but can be used after its declaration only.
[INTERPRETER]
* BUG: Do not use __DATE__ and __TIME__ macros, they prevent reproducible builds.
[COMPILER]
* BUG: Do not use __DATE__ and __TIME__ macros, they prevent reproducible builds.

* BUG: Do not use __DATE__ and __TIME__ macros, they prevent reproducible builds.
[INFORMER]
* BUG: Do not use __DATE__ and __TIME__ macros, they prevent reproducible builds.
[INTERPRETER]
* NEW: String value can be used like object.
* NEW: String[X] returns the X-th character of the string, 0 being the first one.
* NEW: String[X, N] returns N characters from the position X, 0 being the first one. IF N is strictly negative, then all characters from the position X, except the last N characters are returned.
* NEW: String.Len returns the length of the string.
[COMPILER]
* NEW: Allow the [] operator to be applied to a string.
[COMPILER]
* NEW: Rename a macro constant to avoid a symbol clash when compiling the interpreter.
[INTERPRETER]
* NEW: Get rid of a macro trick in 'gbx_eval.h' header.
[GB.EVAL]
* NEW: Highlight: Add three new color constants for syntax highlighting: Escape, Label and Constant.
* NEW: Rename some source files.
* NEW: Rename some constants.
* NEW: Gambas syntax highlighter now use the three new contants for escape characters in strings, for labels, and for language contants (True, False, Null, +Inf and -Inf).
[GB.EVAL.HIGHLIGHT]
* NEW: Support for the new syntax highlighting color constants.
[GB.FORM.EDITOR]
* NEW: Support for the new syntax highlighting color constants.
* NEW: UNSAFE is a new keyword used in conjunction with FAST. It tells the JIT compiler not to do any safety check (null objects, division by zero, out of array bounds...). It makes the code a bit faster, but prone to segmentation fault.
[INTERPRETER]
* NEW: Support for the UNSAFE keyword.
[GB.JIT]
* NEW: Support for the UNSAFE keyword.
* NEW: Check validity of objects that can be invalid.
