 PrintTok/cc65: new version available, not quite v. 2

Hi! Over the past few days, I delayed work on printtok2 in favor of a slightly improved version of printtok1. The new features include 128 one-byte tokens and more special control codes, including pauses, clear screen, inverse mode and, for most CBM targets, up to eight text colors as stored in an array in the modules. It still doesn't have automatic compression, but I'm working on it. It is at https://sourceforge.net/projects/cc65extra/files/ui/. Try it out!

I just updated PrintTok online. The main update is more two-byte tokens for two versions. Both versions support 128 more two-byte tokens, but version 006 lost 26 two-byte tokens due to a conflict between two sets of tokens. Version 006 is an update from 004 that now provides better support for memory expansion and, if you need between 65 and 192 tokens, it is now a little more efficient if you disable unneeded tokens, as the new tokens require less processing. Version 007 is updated only by the extra tokens. They are online now at https://sourceforge.net/projects/cc65extra/files/ui/. I ask you to try them out and tell me what you think.

I'm looking to add values between 0x61 and 0x7A as one-byte tokens for the CBM target of PrintTon1 006. Unfortunately, cc65 converts these into lower-case letters. sad I'm wondering if it's possible to directly write these values as such in a string without messing up the kay assignments, as I want both lower-case letters and these tokens in the same strings. I'm also asking if there are any improvements I can make before PrintTok2.
