Here's an example file featuring a Technic Flex-System Hose at 120 LDU
length. See lugnet.cad.dev for a reference.
The file names and descriptions are open for changes, obviously. The
latter especially applies due to my bad English.

0 A Technic Flex-System Hose is typically seen curved in a model. In
0 those cases, some part of the ends are normally fixed inside another
0 element, while the rest of the hose is bent. The parts "HOSEEND.DAT"
0 are meant to model the straight parts of the hose ends. To achieve
0 this, scale them to have the correct length (ie. 20LDU if they are
0 fixed inside a unit length connector) and place them at the end
0 points. The parts "HOSESEG.DAT" are meant to model the rest of the
0 hose. If the rest of the hose is curved, you would typically scale
0 the "HOSESEG.DAT" to a have a short length, eg. 4LDU, and use many of
0 them along the path of the curved hose.
0 In the example below, the end points are scaled to 20LDU length, while
0 the centre part of the hose is scaled to have 80LDU length, thus
0 filling out the rest of the hose.
