 This library offers a simple protocol to encode/decode messages 
 and exchange

them between processes on a socket (inet or local).
 A message is composed of a 32-bit id and a payload. The payload 
 is composed

of any number of typed arguments.
 The encoding/decoding is done with printf/scanf like functions 
 with a format

string and a variable number of arguments. However, no actual 
string formatting
is done, the payload is a binary representation of arguments.

Since D aims to be the premier language for printf-oriented 
programming, perhaps this is worth keeping an eye on.
