πŸ†• Program Throttling Property

 On April 22nd, I had modified BASIC Anywhere Machine (aka "BAM!") to stop throttling applications.

That provided a major speed boost to BAM! programs.  It did, though, make classic BASIC games like Donkey.BAS completely unplayable.

I finally got around to setting up a user interface for setting throttling properties on individual programs.

By default, programs have no throttling.   Set throttling when needed on a case by case basis.

I've provided a wide range of throttling values (from zero to ten million, in hundred thousand increments) while I evaluate different throttling values on applications.

Eventually, I might reduce the number of throttling options (i.e. increase the size of the increments) if there isn't any value in having that many options between the start and the end of the range.
