...and *ThinStreamWriter.* These accept any subclass of `ThinStream` and maintain an offset and allow you to read integers in any endianness, strings, objects, arrays of objects (both fixed length records and variable length records), and various other things. Finally, there are *ThinStreamRef* and *WritableThinStreamRef* which you can think of as `ArrayRef` and `MutableArrayRef` for ThinStreams. They allow slicing, dropping, etc and copy-semantics so that you can easily pass streams around without worrying about reference lifetime issues. To re-iterate: *When using a ThinStreamReader, copies are the exception, n...
