Which language is _the simplest_ to program things like a binary
file that packs things?

Something like the specification of a "graphic" file could
be like:

4 bytes for the header: AVFM
4 bytes (little endian) for the x dimension
4 bytes (little endian) for the y dimension
(R,G,B) as 2 bytes big endian for each, from
(x = 1, y = 1) to (x = 1, y = (max y)) etc.

And the "language" would translate this as:

byte[4] "AVFM"
int4le maxx
int4le maxy
loop y = 1 to maxy
loop x = 1 to maxx
int2be R(x,y)
int2be G(x,y)
int2be B(x,y)
end x
end y
