Ok, now (not 1) is 0 and (not 1) is 1, the old behavior is assigned to the
~ operator (a new one). I also found a couple of bugs: you couldn't enter
(~ -2) and after it any run gave errors (because the error wasn't reset).
I also added hexadecimals to the shl because they are supported.

I implemented it.

Implemented.

Implemented, it helps a lot when running a small code and the return value
is printed in the message box.
