Common Lisp sort of supports this by specifying :element-type for +streams, but that facility is underspecified and there's nothing similar for +read/write from octet vectors. What most people wind up doing is rolling their +own small facility for their particular needs and calling it a day. + +This library attempts to be comprehensive and centralize such +facilities. Functions to read 16-, 32-, and 64-bit quantities from octet +vectors in signed or unsigned flavors are provided; these functions are also +SETFable. Since it's sometimes desirable to read/write directly from streams, +functions for doing so are also provided.
