  auto file = io.File("test.txt", "rb");
  auto fp = file.getFP();
  int x;
  io.fread(&x, x.sizeof, 1, fp);

  what's the “d method” to do that?

The same method: import core.stdc.stdio : fread; fread(&x, x.sizeof, 1, fp); or, if you are using an array, you can use File.rawRead: int[10] xx; f.rawRead(xx); Graham

In fact, you can read a struct/int this way too: f.rawRead((&x)[0..1]); -Steve

Aha! that makes sense. Thanks, Steve. Graham
