There is currently no way to save data in a binary format with Octave.

Someone has already written the C-style binary read/write functions
fread() and fwrite(), but I haven't installed them because I am
waiting for papers for the changes.

If anyone is interested in doing the work to make save and load work
with binary data, please send me a message.

Thanks,
