People looking for alternative code to read and write IFF files are directed
to my IFF CAT archiver that was recently published in comp.sources.amiga.
It's a rewrite from the original EA code, but I think it's pretty good, and
moderately commented.  It does a bit more work than it needs to, insuring
that the sums of the lengths of the chunks within FORMs, LISTs and CATs
match the length of their parent chunk, but the IFF spec requests that this
be done and it's probably a good idea for an archiver, eh?
