Corrected the noca pergens so that the multigens are all 5-limit-no-twos ratios, analogous to 2.3.5 and 2.3.5.7 pergens using only 3-limit multigens. Fixed some typos in Procyon and Metric color names.

These are defined by a yaza noca or 7-limit-no-twos comma. Any no-twos comma is a ratio of odd numbers. If no other commas are tempered out, It is a non-octave tuning, with a period of a perfect 12th or tritave, 3/1 (or some fraction of that). See also [[subgroup temperaments]].
