improvement of the next operator

Just a brief one today. I tweaked the next operator so we can now specify the size of the gap we can handle. Previously it was hard-coded to 3. Recall the next operator, given a subsequence predicts the rest of the sequence.

To demonstrate it, let's use the alphabet:

a = {A.B.C.D.E.F.G.H.I.J.K.L.M.N.O.P.Q.R.S.T.U.V.W.X.Y.Z}

Now put it to use (for brevity I omit the gm2sw-v2.py and load into console step):

sa: next[0] |A>
incoming_sequence: ['A']
|B . C . D . E . F . G . H . I . J . K . L . M . N . O . P . Q . R . S . T . U . V . W . X . Y . Z>
|B>

sa: next[0] |A.E>
incoming_sequence: ['A', 'E']
nodes 1: 0.1|node 1: 0>
intersected nodes: |>
|>

sa: next[1] |A.E>
incoming_sequence: ['A', 'E']
nodes 1: 0.1|node 1: 0>
intersected nodes: |>
|>

sa: next[2] |A.E>
incoming_sequence: ['A', 'E']
nodes 1: 0.1|node 1: 0>
intersected nodes: |>
|>

sa: next[3] |A.E>
incoming_sequence: ['A', 'E']
nodes 1: 0.1|node 1: 0>
intersected nodes: 0.1|node 1: 4>
|F . G . H . I . J . K . L . M . N . O . P . Q . R . S . T . U . V . W . X . Y . Z>
|F>

sa: next[4] |A.E>
incoming_sequence: ['A', 'E']
nodes 1: 0.1|node 1: 0>
intersected nodes: 0.1|node 1: 4>
|F . G . H . I . J . K . L . M . N . O . P . Q . R . S . T . U . V . W . X . Y . Z>
|F>

So, what is happening there? Well in the first example, given A, predict the rest of the alphabet. Next example, given A followed by E, predict the rest of the sequence. But observe we get the null result |> until we specify a skip of at least size 3. And that's it! A small improvement to our next operator.
