IIRC the GNU tools can take SREC as an input format and disassemble it
(I think I disassembled the ROM from an RCX 2.0 from SREC some time ago).
In any case there is a higher level transcription and extensive
commentary by Kekoa Proudfoot at http://graphics.stanford.edu/~kekoa/rcx/
It is good for understanding how it works, but for modifying
I'd also use something else, as has already been suggested.


Cheers
