Hi! I developed some abstractions for reading/writing binary files,
but they're somewhat limited in capability. They just load the data
into a list of floats (one per byte), or save a list of floats to a
file, and they read/write the entire file at once. They don't support
repositioning within the file, or writing/reading a portion of the
file. But if the files are relatively small, they might be suitable.

I can send them to you later if you're interested, I'm at work right now.

David.
