expression is optimized. Consequently, an expression like 'IF NOT 2' is
now equivalent to 'IF 2 = 0' and not to 'IF (NOT 2) <> 0' as before. In

[CONFIGURATION]
* NEW: 64 bits port.
[EXAMPLES]
* BUG: Fixed the AnalogWatch example.
[WIKI CGI SCRIPT]
* NEW: Some little cosmetic changes.
[INTERPRETER]
* NEW: The extern function implementation has been redesigned and is now
based on libffi, so that it works on 64 bits system. Because of a flaw in
the compiler design, projects that use the Pointer datatype must be
recompiled to be used on a 64 bits system. This flaw will be fixed in
Gambas 3.
