I forgot something crucial in passing from 12,200 to 3,800 lines of code: I 
realized that there is no need to write a whole separate Vector class -- the 
Matrix class is enough. Vectors are just Matrices with 1 column.

That sure means that there'll be some unwanted methods in the API, like a 
operator()(int, int) in the Vector classes. But hey, this is a pure template 
library so no code is generated for the unused methods, and as to 
documentation it'll be necessary anyway to write fake source files to run 
doxygen on, so the unwanted methods just won't be mentioned in the API.

Cheers,
Benoit
