I propose to create a new kind of tori, with a file name beginning with tm instead of t (the rest of the nomenclature beeing the same) and place them in the \48 folder. What others think of this? To make this really fly, we need an update of primgen2 (Mike, Nils?) though Kevin tool can be used in the meantime, and some primitive substitution support by LDView (Travis?)

I updated my Google Doc sheet to use your suggested "tm" prefix.  I think that makes the "48" redundant in the filename (though I haven't removed it yet). 

Perhaps the new standard could be simply tmi####.dat, tmo####.dat, and tmq####.dat.  That would leave one extra character (assuming a desire to adhere to 8.3 filenames) that could potentially be used for some other piece of information--perhaps a count of 1/48 slices with specific letters to describe 12-, 16-, 24-, and 48-slice tori.

Sticking with 8.3 is no longer a requirement... 48 in filename remains needed if the new tori are to go in p\48 folder
