From my understanding, this is binding from C so at least I don't have to make them on my own. Thanks a lot for your time, have an amazing day! |

This is the most "direct" way possible. However I should probably not mess with assembly at this point and use the built-in D header file for unistd. Thanks a lot for your time tho, have a great day! |
