Running shootout tip:

If you want to run the tests for FPC and GCC don't forget to include a * in front of the name
otherwise it will not newer revisions (called benchmark.lang-#.lang) of some benchmarks

To run multiple languages use:

make SELECT_LANGS='{*fpascal,*fpascal2,*gcc}' clean plot

to run a single language don't use the { }:

make SELECT_LANGS='*fpascal' clean plot
