- Beacause they won't necessarily be Orca/C SRC file formats.
- I'm not sure how IBMs store text files, but they could be different.
- Specifically, with Merlin (I know it's not an IBM program), but it
- saves text files that Teach won't let you look at, because Merlin
- saves with the highbits on.
-
- Did anybody ever request a file format for Mod files? If not,
- somebody should. Then you can take *.mod from the IBM and
- automatically convert them.
