Description

§

(read-bytevector k)
(read-bytevector k port)

Reads the next k bytes, or as many as are available before the end of file, from the binary input port into a newly allocated bytevector in left-to-right order and returns the bytevector. If no bytes are available before the end of file, an end-of-file object is returned.
