Tuning Offsets would be icing on the cake!

It would be REALLY cool to have the option to program sweetened tunings into the PBC tuner.
I regularly use the following Sweetened Tuning available on Petersen Tuners.

E1 = -2.3 cent
B2 = 0
G3 = 0
D4 = -0.4 Cent
A5 = -2.1 Cent
E6 = -2.3 Cent

Not sure how difficult this would be to do.

@rjmmusic sorry to resurrect an old thread here, but what's the chance we could see 0.1 increments in offsets? Is it a tuner resolution issue or a memory issue with floating point numbers?

If it's a memory issue, could this be overcome by dividing all values by 10 at runtime?

i.e., you want -2.3 cents for an offset, store the value as -23 (so you don't have to deal with floats), then when tuning, divide by 10 to get -2.3.
 
The main issue, I guess, is that no one has asked for it until now. The tuner uses plenty of floating point math, so that's not an issue. Updating the settings storage and UI is more work than updating the tuner itself.

(Just realized that the original poster did request it, but I guess no one reminded me until now)
