Python script that generates blob files

Presumably using the random module would help?

length = random.randint(0, 1000)
filename = 'test'

f = open(filename, 'wb')
i = 0
while i < length:
     f.write(chr(random.randint(0, 255)))
f.close()

Slight variations could simplify this...  use getopt or optparse
to retrieve command line arguments if you want to specify different
filenames or length ranges etc.
