I forgot to bring up this point in my earlier reply.

I'd buy that for ELF and COFF.  But I can't figure out why it complains 
about converting srec to binary.  That should be straightforward.

But it turns out this is moot.  I found out that I need to twiddle with 
the length count in the data in order to solve a communication problem 
between my serial port and the FPGA; given that, I might as well do what 
you and others have suggested and just generate a C file. Too bad.  The 
other way really appealed to me for some reason.

Thanks anyway.
