You guys are awesome!  I had to set the 'b' flag when writing the
binaries.

file_obj = open('filename.bin', 'wb')

instead of just using 'w'

It worked fine for all of the other 10 binary files I made, but had a
small error with one of them.  In that one file's case it wrote out an
extra 4 bytes in the middle somewhere.  Strange.

Thanx for your help.
