 *      Harbour Extensions
 *  $DESCRIPTION$
 * <b>Language extensions:</b>   </par>
 * --------------------
 *
 * * Class generation and management.
 *
 *         CA-Cl*pper only allowed creation of objects from a few standard
 *         classes.
 *
 *         In Harbour, you can create your own classes--complete with
 *         Methods, Instance Variables, Class Variables and Inheritance.
 *         Entire applications can be designed and coded in Object Oriented
 *         style.
 *
 * * @<FunctionName>()   </par>
 *
 *         Returns the pointer (address) to a function.
 *
 *         The returned value is not useful to application-level programming, but
 *         is used at a low level to implement object oriented coding.
 *         (Internally, a class method is a static function and there is no
 *         symbol for it, so it is accessed via its address).
 *
 * * Class HBGetList
 *
 *         Object oriented support for GetLists management.
 *
 * * ProcName() support for class Method names.
 *
 *         Class Methods can be retrieved from the call stack.
 *
 * * Memory() has new return values.
 *
 *         See hbmemory.ch
 *
 * * Transform()  --> new function in format string
 *
 *         @0      Make a zero padded string out of the number.
 *
 * * SToD()  --> dDate
 *
 *         New function that converts a yyyymmdd string to a Date value.
 *
 * * Optional Compile Time STRONG TYPE declaration (and compile time TYPE
 *   MISMATCH warnings)
 *
 *   Example: LOCAL/STATIC Var AS ...
 *
 * * The Harbour debugger provides new interesting classes:
 *
 *   - Class TDbWindow could be the foundation for a generic multiplatform
 *
 *   - Class TForm
 *
 *   - Class TDbMenu implement both pulldown and popup menus.
 *
 * <b>RTL enhanced functionality:</b>   </par>
 * ---------------------------
 *
 * - Directory( <cMask>, <cFlags>, <lEightDotThree> )
 *
 *   The 3rd parameter is a Harbour (optional) parameter and indicates that on
 *   those platforms that support long filenames, that you wish to receive what
 *   would be considered the dos equivalant 8.3 name.
 *   Could affect Adir() and Dir if they were modified to take advantage
 *   of it - currently, they will return long names if the os supports it.
 *
 * - HB_DiskSpace( <nDrive>, <nType> )
 *
 *   The second parameter is a Harbour (optional) parameter and indicates the
 *   type of diskinfo being requested.  See en/diskspac.txt for info.
