Inferring a ROM

Has anyone used a HEX (Intel format) file to infer a ROM? I'd like to build a look-up table for waveform generation using a 32768 x 16 ROM and would prefer not to type in all of the values manually....

I'd use ieee.math_real and generate the table automatically in VHDL using a function. Then you only need to make sure you use an appropriate template to get the ROM.
