    Yes I do mean exclusive OR. The 2 binary files are in fact the same file. So I should have said I want to exclusive OR a file to itself giving me a new file that is the original file with a Delta-1 on it.
      OIC. If this is what you want to do, then just:
      ln -s /dev/null cipher.txt
      Because X ^ X == 0.
