Added a "hand type simulator"
Added a simulator for manual typing, i.e insert random delays between "keystrokes".
Toggle on/off in Screen via <ESC> T.
When toggled on, prints "lorem ipsum" dummy text with pseudo random delay between keystrokes until toggled off.
To output the text to the teleprinter, first activate it by either dialling '000' or entering <ESC> A in screen.
Added feature to insert text files into the character stream
Entering five or more subsequent WR (carriage return) at the telerpinter lets piTelex
interpret the following number from 0 to 9 as a file name located in the subdirectory
"read" of pitelex. The file must have the extension .txt.
If the fie exists, pitelex will insert the contents of the file and send it to the teleprinter line.
Useful to insert predefined text blocks
