Thank you, this looks great and its exactly what I needed. I had some
concerns about lexical_cast and the inefficiencies of exceptions for
my simple use case.

This is one of the great things I love about having Boost as a
monolithic distribution, it has a wonderful collection of (mostly
header-only) libraries that I can just reach for as needed without
fussing about dependencies.
