  Why a,b,c... versions for the 0.87 version ?
  Compared to the 0.87 version, the 0.87a to 0.87e versions were only bugs fixing, or some very little improvements. There were no big modification, no new move, in short, no change important enough to go to an hypothetical 0.88 version. In fact, the 0.87e version was the 0.87 as it should have been if the bug fixed and the improvements brought by 0.87a to 0.87e versions were detected before.

- Development note :

  - The Link's shop system works with binary values and bitwise operators. If you don't know what it is, I strongly recommand you not to try to modify the objects and the shop working without having made a prior backup of the files. You would risk to completely wreck the shop system, and so, not to be able anymore to buy (and so, to use) any object.

  - The Link's customization system also works, partly, with this system of binary values and bitwise operators. Once again, I strongly recommend you not to mofidy anything if you don't know what you do. Else, you risk to completely wreck the customization system, and to generate more or less serious bugs in Link.

  - After testing, I've noticed on one hand that Mugen was doing some rounding errors, sometimes rough, and on the other hand, that these rounding errors weren't the same between DOS Mugen and WinMugen, so that the final DOS version was perfectly working on DOS Mugen, but was producing bugs on WinMugen (items sometimes not counted, bugs on arrows and bombs infos, impossible to throw the last bomb sometimes, etc.). This version has been fixed in order to work on both versions. However, I haven't been able to test Link on Linux Mugen, and it's not impossible that this Mugen version has also different rounding errors. If it's the case, it's possible that Link doesn't work properly on this Mugen version (cf. bugs previously mentionned).
