or
add the list of tools in the tool library dat file, in the same format

Create a carrier for each "set" and then add the tools as you described.
From the operation navigator select the carrier and select object - template setting - template
For the tools set the template setting to load with parent.
Save the file
Now in another file when you want to retrieve the tools select create tool and select browse and pick the part with the tools. You will see the carriers on the create tool dialog. When you pick on of the carrier "sets" all the tools will be loaded with the parent(template) object.
