I'm having a similar problem as the original poster. I expect Buffered() to
return the number of bytes that can be read from the current buffer, like
the documentation states. However a call to Buffered() returns 0 both
before and after a call to any Read() that finds bytes in the buffer. In my
case the Reader is a net.Conn.
How do we use Buffered() properly? This is the only google result I could
find that even mentions using the function.
I ended up solving my problem without using bufio.
