I'd like to get some comments on what an appropriate API design and

requirements are that
it must be as easy to use as std.stdio.File and it must be easy to
extend to
support other single-file compression formats like bz2.
Use ranges.
Ok, obviously. The point was trying to figure out how to maximize the reuse of
the infrastructure from std.stdio.File.
It's not so obvious based on my reading of the other comments. For example, we
should not be inventing a streaming interface.
