Convert int to dchar

[Paul via Digitalmars-d-learn]

   I'm sure I'm making this more difficult than it needs to be.  
I'm trying to convert an integer to a dchar.  The solution below 
works but seems like overkill.

    dstring dstrValue = to!dstring(5);
    dchar dcharValue = to!dchar(dstrValue);
... this,

    dchar dcharValue = to!dchar(5);

... writes out '\x005' ..or something close to that.
