Yes, that's what I really wanted (and write/readln). stdin.byLine is possibly the greatest thing ever, and extending it to network connections, and other processes too, is a nice thing to have available.

Yes, certainly: http://d.puremagic.com/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=4025 I've written a HTTP client on top of it too. http://arsdnet.net/dcode/http.d (the import network refers to the module now in bugzilla) I'm not completely happy with it yet, but it works pretty well anyway. The File based code is much simpler than the raw socket code I used to use, though the downside is File's calls block. OK for me, but probably not for everyone. -- Adam D. Ruppe http://arsdnet.net
