Jim Omura posted a visual description of the Motorola S-record
format.  You might note that it didn't support addresses longer
than 16 bits, relocation information, etc.  Motorola has extended
this format with different record types for longer addresses and
such.  If you use S-records on a 68000, please find out and use
the extended format.

But, please don't post any binaries, in S-records or any other way.
(This is my personal opinion, you are free to ignore it.  I think
until the net resolves that it either wants binaries or doesn't, 
it would be an inflammatory thing to do, though.)
