go-binaryext

Package binaryext provides functions that supplement the golang encoding/binary library. In particular, while encoding/binary provides varint encoding, binaryext provides binary encoding of straight integers, providing twice the efficiency since all 8 bits in a byte are available for use (rather than 7 with varint).
