Benoît Minisini 0bc1701225 [WIKI CGI SCRIPT]
* NEW: New look for version specific documentation.

[INTERPRETER]
* NEW: Assign() has been removed, and replaced by Eval() with an expression 
  beginning with the LET keyword.
* NEW: New routines to read a value stored at a memory address: BoolPtr(),
  BytePtr(), ShortPtr(), IntPtr(), LongPtr(), SinglePtr(), FloatPtr() and
  PointerPtr().

[COMPILER]
* NEW: The LET keyword can be used to write an assignment expression. Of
  course it is optional.

[GB.EVAL]
* NEW: The LET keyword can be used to evaluate an assignment.
* NEW: The Expression.Compile() method does not take any argument anymore.
