I really can't believe people are still coming up with that non-sense. I have no idea why people assume that a binary format means it can only be processed with a special, proprietary tool. Binary simply means what it means, binary and not text which means it's a more stream-lined and machine-readable format as opposed to a text format with no formatting at all. And, when it comes to processing, binary data is actually *easier* to process. Everyone who has ever written a text parser themselves will agree. Cheers, Adrian -- .''`.
