[Implemented] Rename structure ".character" to ".char"

To be consistent, please rename structure ".character" to ".char" like

test_b.Byte (ReadByte(), WriteByte()....)
test_l.Long (ReadLong(), WriteLong()...)
test_c.Char (ReadChar(), WriteChar()...)

and not test_c.Character (ReadChar(), WriteChar()...)

Agree.
Sure the current idea comes from types to be a complete word, but it would be better like Lebostein says, because "char" is in fact a real word in computer slang.

.char
.double
.quad
.byte
.word
.float

Actually these 2 char() functions have been renamed to character().
