I wantyed to do that recently. What I did was write a small rpogram which
reads the binary file, converting it byte by byte to hex, which is then
written to a new file.

Add something like unsigned char entry_name[] = { to the beginning, and }; to
the end (don't forget commas between the bytes). The use your C compiler to
convert it to a .OBJ file.
