I recently installed FastBinaryFiles (in Mathematica 3.01, for Window NT 4.0).
According to the readme.txt file that came with this package, the following
should
work:

Needs["Utilities`BinaryFiles`"]

data = N[Table[n, {n, -10, 10}]]

nn = Length[data]

stream = OpenWriteBinary["e:\data\binarytest"]

WriteBinary[stream,data,Double]

Close[stream]

stream = OpenReadBinary["e:\data\binarytest"]

xx = ReadListBinary[stream,Double,nn]

Print[xx]

Close[stream];


This does not work (at least for me) -- the WriteBinary does not compile.
But, according to the readme.txt file, it should compile. What am I doing
wrong?
