Those aren't Intel hex files, but rather Motorola S-records, a method of
storing binary files in ascii format.
If you do a search on hotbot for Motorola S-records, you'll come up with
some information on the file format, and some links to unix code for
dealing with them.
Otherwise most eprom programmer utilities can read S-records and convert
them to binary files. (My particular one required me to strip out all of
the leading spaces contained in these files, as well as the non-S lines,
but I'm sure others are more robust.)
However, even after converting them to .bin files, it's obvious a lot of
work needs to be done. They span address space from 0x4000 to 0x7BFFF,
with lots of garbage in there, probably something with bankswitching/cart
RAM but I'll leave that for people more familiar with 7800 cart
details. You can compare his Ace of Aces to the version floating around to
see what I mean.
