Any software to write VNA cal kit data for Anritsu or Rohde & Schwarz VNAs?

Hi,
Vector network analyzers need to know the calibration constants of the opens & shorts used in VNA calibration kits. I produce a range of low cost cal kits, and can provide downloaded files for HP and Agilent VNAs e.g.

**broken link removed**

I am able do this since there are a couple of useful programs around able to write the data in a form for HP and Agilent VNAs.

* Cal Kit Manager 2.1 for older products http://na.tm.agilent.com/vnahelp/products.html
* Standalone cal kit editor which works for Agilent PNA and FieldFox series http://na.tm.agilent.com/pna/apps/#calkiteditor

I'd like to do the same for Anristu and Rohde & Schwarz VNAs, as it is simpler than someone entering them on the keypad, but are not aware of any software that I can use to write the coefficients in Anritsu's or Rohde & Schwarz format. Does anyone know of any?

The cal kit format used by HP/Agilent is proprietary, but on the off-chance either Rohde & Schwarz's or Anritsu's are public, which would enable me to write my own software, is the format described anywhere?
