the onyl thing i don´t like about the [makefilename %.0f] method is, that for big amount of data, it may clutter the symboltable.
so i started investigating alternativ ways of storing big numbers in chunks, using the [div] and [mod] objects. but they only go until 2147483647 after which they overflow and produce wrong results. anything special about this number? seems [div] and [mod] are not fully double yet. demo patch attached hans
