I'm not sure what you mean by this. For instance:

"\majorScale c" is essentially:
{c d e f g a b c}

whereas "\majorScale es" is that transposed to es:
{es f g as bes c d es}

"\majorScale" itself actually represents a sequence of intervals but it could 
equally well be represented by the scale on c.

Incidentally I am in the middle of a project to sysematically name all 
seven-note scales, none of whoes modes contain a sequence of either more than 
two consecutive semitones or more than two consecutive aumented seconds.
