What would be the suggested name for an 11-16 primitive for a cylinder or edge
line since 11-16 contains 5 letters and tacking on edge or cyli at the end would
give a 9 letter name?

(...) I would suggest avoiding the problem completely by using a 2-4edge + 3-16edge... In other instances the name was shortened: 3-16cone19 --> 3-16co19 11-48ring19 --> 11-48r19 Philo (15 years ago, 25-Sep-09, to lugnet.cad.dat.parts.primitives)

(...) I ditto Phillippe's primary suggestion: use multiple files. It's good for multiple reasons. However, the current standards allow at least 25 characters in the filename, so is there a reason to worry about a 9 character primitive name?
