Answer 1

In C++ just open the file for reading, then copy it to another file as a binary file.

FILE *pTextFile, *pBinaryFile;
char buffer;
pTextFile = fopen("textfile.txt", "r");
pBinaryFile = fopen("binaryfile.bin", "wb");
while (!pTextFile(EOF))
{
fread(buffer, 1, 1, pTextFile);
fwrite(buffer, 1, 1, pBinaryFile);
}
fclose(pTextFile);
fclose(pBinaryFile);
