[PD] CLM scales

[padawan12]

I think any solution that computes it right there is superior to this 
huge preset table. Well actually I'm curious, because it's truncated to 8 places
of decimal afair so I wonder whether anybody with very good musical ears 
can say how well that works, assuming I got the basic data dump
right. What the table offers that a computed solution doesn't is the names,
which are in the the CLM catalogue, so you have a handle on the scales
instead of trying to remember a sequence of coefficients.

btw what are the proper replacements for
unsymbol, list2symbol and tosymbol - some people aren't finding them,
what should I use instead?
cheers,
a.
