Best way to simulate a ROM?

I figured you could simulate a ROM by using an array of switches. Any way to quickly load the ROM state? Or is it a case of old fashion manual frobbing? Could we have a feature to be able to load the state from a CSV file?

Currently the best way to implement a ROM would be cascaded muxes, manually setting the state with ditial 1s and 0s. I implemented a 3bit ROM using muxes here . It's a bit tedious but building it out is actually not that bad using copy/paste.

A ROM digital element that can be loaded with text is definitely on our to-do list though.
