From Jargon File (4.2.0, 31 JAN 2000) [jargon]:
   binary four n.   [Usenet] The finger, in the sense of `digitus
   impudicus'.   This comes from an analogy between binary and the hand,
   i.e. 1=00001=thumb, 2=00010=index finger, 3=00011=index and thumb,
   4=00100.   Considered silly.   Prob. from humorous derivative of
   {finger}, sense 4.
  
  

From The Free On-line Dictionary of Computing (15Feb98) [foldoc]:
   binary file
  
      A file containing {binary} data,
      i.e.   arbitrary bytes or words, as opposed to a {text file}
      containing only printable characters (e.g. {ASCII} characters
      with codes 10, 13, and 32-126).
  
      On modern {operating systems} a text file is simply a binary
      file that happens to contain only printable characters, but
      some older systems distinguish the two file types, requiring
      programs to handle them differently.
  
      A common class of binary files is programs in {machine
      language} ("{executable} files") ready to load into memory and
      execute.   Binary files may also be used to store data output
      by a program, and intended to be read by that or another
      program but not by humans.   Binary files are more efficient
      for this purpose because the data (e.g. numerical data) does
      not need to be converted between the binary form used by the
      {CPU} and a printable (ASCII) representation.   The
      disadvantage is that it is usually necessary to write special
      purpose programs to manipulate such files since most general
      purpose utilities operate on text files.   There is also a
      problem sharing binary numerical data between processors with
      different {endian}ness.
  
      Some communications {protocols} handle only text files,
      e.g. most {electronic mail} systems before {MIME} became
      widespread in about 1995.   The {FTP} utility must be put into
      "binary" mode in order to copy a binary file since in its
      default "ascii" mode translates between the different text
      line terminator characters used on the sending and receiving
      computers.
  
      Confusingly, some files produced by {wordprocessors}, and
      {rich text} files, are actually binary files because they
      contain non-printable characters and require special programs
      to view, edit, and print them.

From The Free On-line Dictionary of Computing (15Feb98) [foldoc]:
   binary package
  
      An {archive} file that contains all files and
      directories that must be installed in order to make a working
      installation of the program(s) included in the package, and
      the {maintainer scripts} necessary for the installation.   A
      binary package is usually specific to a certain {platform}, in
      contrast to a {source package}.
