This is the native format for storing metafiles in the GEM graphic user interface system that was popular on PCs in the 1980s (versions of GEM were also available on some other computer systems such as the Atari ST).

Files of this type were created in GEM applications such as GEM Draw.

The format simply records a sequence of GEM drawing operations.
