[GreenKeys] Precise baud timing

[Windows XD]

OK now this is kind of embarrassing: my program and setup was completely
fine. One of the type bar carriage actuating arms was not adjusted
correctly and typing incorrect bits half the time, leading to my problem.
Once I fixed it, my program worked flawlessly in its original pre-debugging
state. Thank you all for your help though, it helped me check my codes
parameters!
