Stop thrashing about, and do the following:
(1) print repr(open('test.gde, 'rb').read(100))
(2) tell us what you EXPECT to see in attr_val etc
(3) tell us what platform the file was created on and what platform
it's being read on
(4) (on the reading platform, at least) import sys; print
sys.byteorder
When showing results, do print ..., repr(attr_val)
