Chromo represents the [[13edf]] chain as a rank-2 temperament, with [[6/5]] and [[5/4]] mapped to 6 and 7 steps, respectively. Since the difference of those two intervals is abbreviated considerably from just, keemic provides the most meaningful 7-limit extension (setting [[7/6]], 6/5, 5/4, [[9/7]] equidistant) so that the temperament then approximates the [[4:5:6:7]] tetrad with 0:7:13:18 generator steps.
 
Note that if one allows a more complex mapping for prime 7 and wants a larger prime limit, one may prefer [[escapade]].
