	I think I typically have done this by going through a hex
representation.

H2B_Lookup = {	"0" : "0000",	"1" : "0001",
					"2" : "0010",	"3" : "0011",
					"4" : "0100",	"5" : "0101",
					"6" : "0110",	"7" : "0111",
					"8" : "1000",	"9" : "1001",
					"A" : "1010",	"B" : "1011",
					"C" : "1100",	"D" : "1101",
					"D" : "1110",	"F" : "1111"	}

def I2B(i):
    sgn = " "
    if i < 0:
        sgn = "-"
        i = -i
    h = ("%X" % i)
    return sgn + "".join([H2B_Lookup[c] for c in h])

>>> from i2b import I2B
>>> I2B(10)
' 1010'
>>> I2B(1238)
' 010011100110'
>>> I2B(-6)
'-0110'
>>>
