If I remember, Python 3.0 gas byte as a data type where you can play with
bytes.
Otherwise you can open file with read and binary mode

 rf = open("README.txt", "rb")
 bytes = f.read(n) # n bytes or simply read() but it returns string
 wf = open("README.txt", "wb")
 wf.write(bytes) #technically string

OR have a look at http://docs.python.org/library/shutil.html which has many
copy utilities which you need..very simple..
