I've used mkid since its posting.  I think its fantastic.

I got it to run on Ms/dos.

Did some general cleanup.

Got it to be byte-order independent so the same ID files would work on a sun4 and a sun386i.

If other people are using it, I would be glad to share the work.

I also think I fixed the scanner for ansi compatability (?).
