Hi Kenneth,

I did a little searching for info on MRB. I assume you mean Microsoft's
multiple bitmap format? Very old, apparently not very popular format,
especially these days.

But, I'm guessing it's not very complex. You could likely code a writer for
it, if you can get your hands on this old article:

   .mrb and .shg File Formats, Windows/DOS Developer's Journal, Pete Davis,
       February 1994 (Vol 5, No 4), pp. 37-46.

   https://scholar.google.com/scholar?cluster=1740172181704482318
   http://dl.acm.org/citation.cfm?id=189786

But I would definitely suggest using a different file format if at all
possible.

Regards,
Curtis
