I am not sure what the problem is that your library
is trying to solve. Obfuscation is normally something
that is done when the data use is known. The algorithm
usually exploits this knowledge. I have not heard of a
general-purpose binary data obfuscator before. It sounds
like a kind of feeble encryption to me, based on security
through obscurity. Can you tell me more about the motivation
for this library please?

  I know it is very basic. I know that loading a file into

My approach would be to use buffered I/O.
If you want a heavy duty string you can always use rope :-)
