- added classes and objects
- added exec scripttrace
- quit (x) no longer frees x if x is vector or map
- imports (path) vvv now makes vvv static, not local

Well, this is it.  Would you believe that I have received hundreds of 
emails asking for class and objects in PowerPro?  

Would you believe dozens of emails?

OK. How about Mockey mentioned it in passing and it sounded like fun.

As I should have known, it was fun for a couple of days which is what 
it took to get the main functionality working.  Then I realized the 
only reasonable way to do memory management for objects was to 
reference count them, and that was a bear to get working.  (And so I 
did not attempt to backfit it with existing, working stuff like vectors 
which still use localcopy).

If you want to play with objects, the most likely bugs you will find 
are related to reference counting.  If PowerPro blows up or you get an 
invalid object message, that could be it.  Please post a simple version 
of the script that causes the error.

You can also check that PowerPro has freed all objects you expect with 
class.check or clshandle.numobjects.  See help.  If you get unexpected 
results, please post script.
