I want to be able to put a file to a variable so I can interact with it. For example I could put a wav file into a variable and play it back without having to distribute the separate file. Is this possible for instance by using Base64. I have seen some Python programs for example that have images embedded in the code.
Yes, you could conceivably store the contents of a binary .wav file as a static, uuencoded text array.
Probably a better way to go about it would be to create a “resource” for your binary data:
