Looking for beta testers import of passwords to InfoWallet

[Phil Davis]

Hi Bill,

What happens if you get the file using "binfile" instead of "file"? And then you 
might have to monkey with unidecode() or something. I bet Devin Asay can tell 
you in his sleep.

Seems to me "binfile" would prevent any char translation, though it would also 
prevent line-ending translations.
