I think this depends on the details.  Can you show us what str() gives 
for one of these lists?  Can you tell us how flexible the other program 
is about the format of what it needs to see?  "RAW/Generic Binary" 
sounds like a format for an image from a digital camera; there might be 
packages available in R that are specifically designed to write that 
format but I don't know them.
