[NEST Users] Writing gdf files in binary format

Hello,

I am trying to write spikedector data into .gdf files in binary format, but I cannot.

I am setting the 'binary' param of the spikedetector to True (I checked it using nest.GetStatus) but files are written in ASCII.

Do I need some special python package?

I am using python 2.7.5 and NEST 2.18.

Thanks in advance.
