Suppose I need to get an image as a stream of bytes. I want to store
this in a variable and then embed it in some Postscript code. In my
Postscript code, the image might look like this:


{<
ffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffff
ff000000000000000000000000000000000000ffffffffffffff
ff00efefefefefefefefefefefefefefefef0000ffffffffffff
ff00efefefefefefefefefefefefefefefef00ce00ffffffffff
ff00efefefefefefefefefefefefefefefef00cece00ffffffff
ff00efefefefefefefefefefefefefefefef00cecece00ffffff

How do I get an image like that, as a stream of bytes? Which function
do I use?

I know include() sort of works, but there is no way to capture what it
brings in.
