In the UK it's "purple", a bit like "color" is wrong, it's "colour".

If you'd like to clarify what you mean I'm sure we could help.  "a 
stream of bytes" but "have to write more than bytes" is as clear as UK 
mud, which is at least always better than, say, US mud.  Unless you 
don't like either, in which case it could be forked, so we could have 
mud 2.8, along with RickedMud.
