How can   one do file I/O with only the ability to read text (Write, on the
other hand, works fine, since int[] to void[] is of quite workable.)
Have I missed something here? Or is pointer manipulation truly disabled, and I
failed to notice in the documentation?

I currently don't have dmd 0.110 at hand, but the sample below used to work.

#import std.c.stdlib;

#int main(){











If this fails with the lates dmd version then please send a bug report.
