"""
Description:
This script converts a binary file (.bin) to a JSON file (.json).
It reads the binary content, assuming each line in the binary file represents a separate record.
The script decodes each line from UTF-8 and saves the data as a JSON file with a "binary_content" key.

Requirements:
- Python 3.x

Usage:
1. Save this script as 'bin2json.py'.
2. Ensure your binary file ('example.bin') is in the same directory as the script.
3. Run the script.
4. The converted JSON file ('bin2json.json') will be generated in the same directory.

Note: Adjust the 'bin_filename' and 'json_filename' variables in the script as needed.
