useful function

packing type 'byte' throws exception

Hi,

This code:

import struct
var packed_byte = pack("b", 5)

throws the following exception:

Traceback (most recent call last)
struct.nim(490)          test
struct.nim(438)          pack
struct.nim(326)          pack_char
system.nim(3535)         failedAssertImpl
system.nim(3527)         raiseAssert
system.nim(2637)         sysFatal
Error: unhandled exception: vars[ctx.offset].kind == StructChar  [AssertionError]

Unexpected Output

Sorry, it's me again.
