new option for displaying them in uppercase as before.
[INTERPRETER]

* OPT: The NOT operator used just at the beginning of a conditional
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
other words, the boolean conversion is now done before the NOT, and not
after. The following instructions are concerned: IF, WHILE, UNTIL.
