That does indeed look clean. Now I'm using a ubyte[1] buffer to try
and read single bytes from my sockets.

their tcp example looks pretty clean:
import vibe.d;

static this()
{
	auto conn = connectTcp("time-b.timefreq.bldrdoc.gov", 13);
	logInfo("The time is: %s", cast(string)conn.readAll());
}

let's see how it'll hold up when I try to deal with raw bytes :)
