I'm still exploring the API myself.  Once I get a better handle on it,
I'll certainly check in with Marco about his file format.

I expect we'll need to walk through the hex code and sort out the

I expected that many changes will be needed. Don't worry about breaking
the test classes, that's why they're test classes. :-)
