Ver.: 2.1.1 14.11.20:

  Removed the old Debug functions to simulate DDC commands TEST_PUSH_BUTTONS(), TEST_TOGGLE_BUTTONS() and TEST_BUTTONS_INCH()
  Experimental support for ESP32 added

Ver.: 2.1.0 02.11.20:

  8% additional configuration memory by changing the reserved size of the fast bootloader from 2K to 512 byte
  Corrected the support for 64 time entries in the pattern_Configurator. Unfortunately the prior changes have been made in a wrong worksheet and not in the Main sheet => They have been lost when the release version was build ;-(
  Corrected the importing of data from old Prog_Generator
  Define at least 20 LEDs to be able to test them with the color test program
  Disabling the Event which is called when Enter is pressed when the workbook is closed. Hopefully this solves the problem that the Pattern_Config is opened sometimes unintentionally

  Updating the arduino type in the "Options" dialog if the USB Port detection is started
  Charlie_Buttons and Charlie_Binary control 3 channels (RGB) instead of 2 (GB)

Ver.: 2.0.0 18.10.20:

  Support for the new buffer gate on mainboard version 1.7 added

Ver.: 1.9.6 K 16.10.20:

  User interface:
      Corrected the entering of selextrix data and the position of the USB simulation buttons
      Corrected the "Dialog" Button. The "Type selection" dialog was called twice in DCC mode.
  Disabled the "ENABLE_CRITICAL_EVENTS_WB" to hopefully get rid of the crash which is generated if lines are deleted in the Pattern_Configurator. By disabling this events the LED numbers are not updated if lines ade hidden or shown again.
  Corrected the NEON_DEF2D entry. Channel 1 was used instead of channel 2. This caused the occupation of a new RGB channel if NEON_DEF1D and NEON_DEF2D was used in a sequence
  Improve the detection probability in "DetectArduino()". Prior the arduino was not always detected at the first trial.
  Corrected the error detection for the ATtiny upload

  Generate an error message if Mainboard_LED(4..) is used together with SwitchB or SwitchC.
  Created an example file to test the MobaLedLib main board: "Mainboard_Hardware_Test.MLL_pgf" This file is stored in the directory "Prog_Generator_Examples" which is copied to the library destination at startup.
  Added DayAndNightTimer which could be used with then Scheduler function

Ver.: 1.9.6 E 07.08.20?:
