When I listed the differences between your version and mine, I
mentioned the OCTO vs OCTAL name, but I didn't say my decision was the
correct one :-). Looks like OCTAL is the term employed almost
everywhere, and it's also consistent with DUAL. Would you mind
sending a new version reverting the name to OCTAL.

Sorry for the unclear statement in my previous review.

Regards,

Boris
