EEG data conversion to fif

Dear Matti and MNE experts,

I intend to use the MNE program on analyzing EEG data for speech and
voice perception. But I am not sure how to convert my EEG data to fif
file.

My 64-channel EEG data were recorded in ANT (the Netherlands) , which
can be converted to a number of other formats such as Neuroscan cnt
format and EDF format. The original recording also included electrode
position file and trigger file in text. Most EEG manufactures (including
ANT) allows exporting data to EDF format:

It would be really nice for MNE to have a feature to convert standard
EEG data format such as EDF into fiff format.

Thank you very much for your kind consideration.
