The order of the operators is not used for searching so the length and alphabetic ordering
is not necessary. I don't know if any other order is required, i guess not, i don't have
the time to check this out.

It should be possible if you change the length check in scanner in the function readtoken.

By debugging the compiler and checking the value that the token variable gets after
reading the token.

Rename the innr.inc to compinnr.inc and fix the compiler accordingly to include that file
instead of innr.inc. This was already done in the 1.0.5 development compiler.
