     binmode(FILEHANDLE)

     binmode FILEHANDLE

             Arranges for the file to be read in "binary" mode in
             operating  systems  that  distinguish between binary
             and text files.  Files that are not read  in  binary
             mode  have CR LF sequences translated to LF on input
             and LF translated to CR LF on output.   Binmode  has
             no   effect   under   Unix.   If  FILEHANDLE  is  an
             expression, the value is taken as the  name  of  the
             filehandle.
