12/1 THRU Next/Last in Patch when doing Port Offset could be Clearer on Command Line

This is low priority for sure, but it caught me up for about 10 minutes while trying to flash through universes to trouble shoot. I was trying to patch or temporarily park a universe at a time. I was being lazy and didn't want to type 12/1 thru 512. So I did 12/1 thru Last, which brings up 512 on the command line. Of course the console is absolutely being smart and actually putting up 11/512, however the command line give no visual indication. I thought it might depend on which DATA state patch was in, but it is the same result in all cases.

This is what shows up typing 1 @ 12/1 THRU LAST ENTER

This actually only patches 12/1 and 11/512 into Channel 1

This is what shows up typing 1 @ 12/1 THRU [5][1][2] ENTER

This actually patches all of universe 12/1

the only thing i don't like about this is that the console doesn't automatically spell out the universe of the end of the range (if it's different from the universe of the start of the range). but the result seems correct to me.

Ueli I agree. Results are as expected. The display could be improved. Because of course i got side tracked, came back to my command line, it looks right, but I wasn't getting the intended result thinking oh 512 is [5][1][2] and not masking it as 11/512.
