Is there a way to create a 24-bit int? One that for all

I haven't looked at endianness beyond it working on my
computer. If you have special needs in that regard, consider
this a starting point:
struct int24 {
ubyte[3] _payload;
this(int x) {
value = x;
}
...
}

You may also want to put an align(1) on it so that you dont waste
25% of the allocated memory in an array of int24's
