Is there a quick way of dumping some text out as binary?

In Python, using information found here:
http://aspn.activestate.com/ASPN/Cookbook/Python/Recipe/219300
def tobin(x, count=8):
... """
... Integer to binary
... Count is number of bits
... """
... return "".join(map(lambda y:str((x>>y)&1), \
... range(count-1, -1, -1)))
...
foo = 'Hello world'
for c in foo:
... print "\b"+ tobin(ord(c)),
...

Python, as always, is your friend.
