I loaded the 24-et, 13-note MOS with 13/24 generator into Scala to
check whether it connected to any Arabic scales. I didn't find out,
since when I tried to compare to the scales in my scl directory, which
I got by donwloading and unzipping from the Scala site, it said that
every one of the scales had a read error, then that it had encountered
a bug and that I should send a bug report to Manuel. This is, among
other things, the bug report.

I did note, however, that it gave the following information about it:

Scale is a Winograd/Gammer deep scale
Scale is an Agmon diatonic system
Rothenberg stability 77/78
Lumma stability 1/2

I tried to do the same under W98, and this time the zip file would not
upzip correctly.
