Also, I unzipped dmdalpha.zip and moved all the files from \dmd to \dm -- on
top of the C++ distribution. PATH includes \dm\bin. dmd.exe can't find

printf() is not a D function as well. If I understand it correct,
every D compiler should supply a library of ANSI C functions, so
you always get all the stuff like printf() (and sprintf()). It
might not be in the headers currently, but you can always import
it yourself.

You should tell the compiler where to find Phobos modules. If you
compile the samples from the SAMPLES\D folder, the command-line
should be:

    dmd -I../../src/phobos filename.d

Or just write a .bat wrapper =)

Use -Ipath to set the path for where to look for imports, such as:

    -I\dm\src\phobos
