* 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.

[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.
