MIDAS is old-school, when the code was the documentation.

This is very noticeable when you try to document things MIDAS (as I have done many times).

For MIDAS data format, file level and bank level, best if you look at my midasio library (included with MIDAS 
git clone) and translate it to Rust directly. I think a Rust version of C++ midasio would be very welcome.

Many data fields in MIDAS files are mysterious and I reverse-engineered them the best I could.

The main problems were:
- data padding
- "length" fields include padding or not?
- identification of big-endian vs little-endian data
- probably something I forget
