Description

Skeletons are stored in data files as a series of commands. This is the first one. It's called NewPeriodic because its arguments set the Skeleton's periodicity. The old OOF.LoadData.Skeleton.New command, without periodicity parameters, still exists for backwards compatibility, but should never be used in new data files.

This command is used only in data files and is not directly accessible from the OOF2 user interface.
