I am working with Dave Shepperd on some code which will eventually become a
portable mixit-style program (to run on VAX, UNIX, PCs, Ariums, or whatever).
In looking over the various flavors of files supported by mixit and the PROM
programmer utilities, the .ROM format stands out as a particularly arcane and
difficult to implement file type.  So I would like to know who is using .ROM
format, for what purpose, and which features of the format are being used.
Depending on the response, we may not implement .ROM format in the new program,
or we may only implement a subset of .ROM format functionality (DON'T PANIC:
the current VAX version of mixit would still be available for .ROM files).

  Please reply via VAXmail.  Your silence will be interpreted as "don't-care
bit" indicators.
