(...) How about using: TNNXFFFF.dat Where T is T, NN is the fraction of the major circle, X is I/O for inner or outer, and FFFF is the fractional ratio of tube radius to major radius. I'm suggesting this specific format for the following reasons: 1. (...) (24 years ago, 16-Feb-01, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts.primitives)
