Updated patch that puts -32bit and -64bit as the first optional argument of the registry command. This will allow further compatibility for developers by allowing them to do things like:
interp alias {} registry32 {} registry -32bit
interp alias {} registry64 {} registry -64bit

Applied to HEAD (causing the package version to be bumped to 1.3). Leaving open in case you want to backport. NB: still needs testing on Windows; I've added some syntactic tests, but they could be wrong... | ||||
