  Strings added.

  I know I am going to regret this move, but, I have started adding C++ notes to this documentation! If a page has brown text, it will contain C++ notes. As an example please checkout the pages on:

  - delete keyword.

  Please dont expect this side of the documentation to grow....

  A large number of the pages now have buttons to jump directly to Top, Master Index, Keywords and Functions.

  Check out the bottom of this page to see what I mean.

  strtok has been reworked.

  sizeof information expanded.

  I have changed the numbering system by dropping the 1. bit as it does not serve much purpose.
