Fix basic output target to keep lines below 249 characters The line length limiter in the basic output was not properly moving to the next before 249 characters, which is the limit Color Basic can read in an ASCII basic program. Changed the line limiter to 240 from 247 to account for a possible 5 digit number plus a comma and just a bit of extra breathing space.

>A raw binary is simply a string of bytes. There are no headers or other
niceties. Both LWLINK and LWASM support generating raw binaries. ORG directives
in the source code only serve to set the addresses that will be used for
symbols but otherwise have no direct impact on the resulting binary.</P
