make print statements in repl pane stand out more #114

right now, after saving and running a script on norns, the print statements get lost in a lot of output in the repl pane. These are (probably?) the most useful info for users, as they are most likely using the print statements as a meants to debug and understand the behavior of their scripts. The studies are structured to make this print-statement-debugging useful in the progress of building things out.

the neatest way to make this happen would be to allow for configurable verbosity of what to display in repl pane. this could be done through a number of ways:

Just a note that I'm not sure of if/how we can get a handle on if something is a print statement or not currently, so this may be quite a complicated ask requiring changes throughout the stack.

i think styling and filtering of repl output would be really handy. 👍
