Added benchmark directories, two sets each for nano, tiny, 94nop and 94x.
Added batch files that run Blassic programs...
findtop.bat - reads bench score comments and outputs top-scoring warriors
bench.bat - benchmarks a directory, edit bench.ini to specify parameters
rebench.bat - re-benchmarks the top warriors output by findtop.bat,
edit rebench.ini to specify parameters.
Compiled the 1.04cs version source for Windows.
July 28, 2009 Version 1.04cs (Fizmo)
Implement probabilities for the hint modes if running in mode 7
Added new INI setting hint-pur, hint-pap, hint-sca, hint-fra and hint-sto

Very experimental and might not make much difference (so hidden for now).
