mload will do this for Intel HEX files and patches, but it sounds like
your files aren't quite the same as Intel HEX. However, the source
code can be modified.
http://www.dunnington.u-net.com/public/IntelHEX/
contains the tar file, but the important bits are also at
http://www.dunnington.u-net.com/public/mload.c

It's an implementation I did years ago of a common CP/M program called,
not surprisingly, mload.
