The fokker scale I mention here is "fokker_12a.scl" in the archive. The
one Dave Keenan was talking about is "fokker_12.scl". For some reason I
missed the other 12-tone fokker scales when I went thru the archive the
other month -- thought there was only one of them, so I didn't bother to
look at Dave's diagram. My mistake.
