# OsStr Bytes

This crate allows interacting with the data stored internally by [`OsStr`] and
[`OsString`], without resorting to panics or corruption for invalid UTF-8.
Thus, methods can be used that are already defined on [`[u8]`][slice] and
[`Vec<u8>`].

Typically, the only way to losslessly construct [`OsStr`] or [`OsString`] from
a byte sequence is to use `OsStr::new(str::from_utf8(bytes)?)`, which requires
the bytes to be valid in UTF-8. However, since this crate makes conversions
directly between the platform encoding and raw bytes, even some strings invalid
in UTF-8 can be converted.
