Hi,
I'm looking for a function that converts my hex-string to a binary
representation. In Python I write the following:
myHex = 123456789ABCDEF
myBin = myHex.decode('hex')
But how to do the same in D? Is there any function?
Thanks for suggestions!

That's not necessarily true. But in any case, go ahead and use it if you like.

one reason why it might be faster is that e.g. gcc can produce code like this:

4. Autodecoding is inefficient, especially considering that few
algorithms actually need decoding. Re-encoding the result back to UTF8

I'm afraid we are stuck with autodecoding, as taking it out may be far
too disruptive.
Also try cast(dchar) instead of cast(char), that might do what
you need.
