SMcNeill 6e01fc8dce Altered string compare routines (<,<=,>,>=) so they don't give false results with CHR$(0).
Added new _STRCMP and _STRICMP commands for quick string comparisons.
Cleaned up QB64 to finish removing the QUI (quick user insert) code and folders.
Altered UCASE and LCASE routines to be faster in some situations for us.

The '''_FREETIMER''' function returns a free {{KW|TIMER}} number for multiple {{KW|ON TIMER(n)}} events.
{{PageSyntax}}
: timerhandle% = {{KW|_FREETIMER}}
{{PageDescription}}
* QB64 can use an unlimited number of ON TIMER (number, seconds!) event {{KW|INTEGER}} values at once.
* Every time _FREETIMER is called the [[INTEGER]] value returned will increase by one, starting at 1, whether it is used or not.
* Store multiple returns in different variable names to refer to separate events later.
