Good stuff. I've just populated CVS with the v0.2 release, so you should
be good to go.
Committed (and README updated as well).

Note sure what you mean by per-frame? I was thinking of passing a
track's worth of BIN data to an Interleave() function which rearranges
the whole track's BIN data in one go.
Something like:
for track in tracks:
pcmdata = mp3DecodeFromFile(track.mp3_file)
cdgdata = cdgReadFromFile(track.cdg_file)
if interleave_mode:
cdgdata = Interleave(cdgdata)
AddToBinFile(pcmdata, cdgdata)
Close; actually produce_bin() is the call that does the gruntwork, but it reads straight from files (it doesn't slurp up everything into memory all at once; it works from disk). It does accept a "raw" flag but currently ignores it; I guess you could alter it so that if "raw" set to "true" it just loads in the whole CDG file first, does its mangling, then write out that data instead of reading from a cooked CDG file 96 bytes at a time.
Have a look at the code; it should be more clear how things work there once you look at it :)
It would be "easier" to write a function that mangles 96 bytes (one frame's worth) at a time; then you'd just have this:
Instead of:
binfile.write(cdg)
Use:
if rawbin:
binfile.write(reinterleave_cdg(cdg))
else:
binfile.write(cdg)
It's your call though, do as you wish with it :)
