My ideas:
1. Binaries isn't ALWAYS an executable program. It can be any file that
isn't text. That lovely swap file you have in your bloated Windows
directory (if you use Windows ;) is a binary. Why? Because it contains
non-text information.
If you download files off an FTP site using a low-level FTP browser (such as
the Windows FTP utility or a Unix terminal), you'll find two modes. ASCII
for text files, and binary for just about everything else. There's no real
specific definition of the word "binary".
2. The way I see it, there's p.t.s-f and p.b.s-f. The 's' stands for
"scene". Most people think of a scene as a complete image, not just a
utility. And an INC file is hardly a scene. It COULD realistically be
called a utility because it does things for people (which utilities
generally do)
There's my two cents :)
