Haxe and System targets

Documentation about using the system targets from Haxe.

The current targets that I have tested is

• cpp (C++)
• cs (C#)
• interp (Eval/Macro)
• java
• lua
• jvm
• neko
• node.js (without installing npm packages)
• python

But Haxe has more system targets, that probably work exactly the same:

• hl (hashlink)
• php
