Welcome aboard, Marc.
Handling I can help you with, parsing is another matter.
The Transcript open file command includes a text/binary argument.
The get URL & put URL commands also allow syntax to specify text or
binary treatment of a file's contents. Assuming you wish to load the
entire image, you will probably pick get URL over open file syntax.
As for parsing, you might check out the bitAnd, bitNot, bitOr, &
bitXor operators.
Hope this helps
