All data is stored in Motorola 68000 format. The bytes of multiple-byte
values are stored with the high-order bytes first. Data is organized as
follows:
7 6 5 4 3 2 1 0
+-----------------------+
char: | msb lsb |
+-----------------------+
15 14 13 12 11 10 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 0
+-----------------------+-----------------------+
char: | msb byte 0 | byte 1 lsb |
+-----------------------+-----------------------+
15 14 13 12 11 10 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 0
+-----------------------+-----------------------+
char: | msb byte 0 | byte 1 |
+-----------------------+-----------------------+
char: | byte 2 | byte 3 lsb |
