Hi,

Maybe it will be useful to allow some kind of compiler parameters to be passed
directly in the .d source files. I never met this but some informations as
libraries etc. could be written in some kinds of ##lines? What about?

I think I'd rather them be there than in some separate makefile or project

have to be able to parse and handle directives they don't understand.

D already supports
#line <line_num> <file_name>
see the very bottom of
http://www.digitalmars.com/d/lex.html

as D is intended to have support as a backend lang I think this should be
extended to allow
several line/filename pairs I have worked with systems that preprocess C
before cpp get there to do it again, there are times when debugging that you
want to keep the macro expended version as well as the original to see what
things expanded to.
