Yes, but does the code have the same license as NumPy? As I work for a software company, where I help with the scripting interface, I must make sure everything I use is cited and has the appropriate license.

I don't think I can do that because I have heterogeneous rows of data.... I.e. the columns in each row are different in length. Furthermore, when reading it back in, I want to read only bytes of the info at a time so I can save memory. In this case, I only want to have one record in mem at once.
Another issue has arisen from taking this routine cross-platform.... namely, if I write the file on Windows I cant read it on Solaris. I assume the big-little endian is at hand here.
Indeed. You may want to take a look at npfile, the new IO module in scipy written by Matthew Brett (you don't have to install the whole scipy to use it, just grab the file).
