Does this return a string? What if the page's encoding isn't UTF-8?
Data should probably be returned as void[], similar to std.file.read.
Currently it returns a string, but should probably return void[] as you
suggest.
Maybe the interface should be something like this to support misc.
encodings (like the std.file.readText does):
class Http {
struct Result(S) {
S content;
...
}
static Result!S get(S = void[])(in string url);
}
Actually I just took a look at Andrei's std.stream2 suggestion and
Http/Ftp... Transports would be pretty neat to have as well for reading
formatted data.
I'll follow the newly spawned "Stream proposal" thread on this one :)
