dfix is a tool for automatically upgrading older D syntax to the 
newer style.

* Updates old-style alias syntax to new-style
* Fixes implicit concatenation of string literals
* Automatic conversion of C-style array declarations and 
parameters to D-style.
* Upgrades code to comply with DIP64 if the --dip64 switch is 
specified. (You
   probably don't want to use this)
* Upgrades code to comply with DIP65 unless the --dip65=false 
switch is specified.

Awesome, would be nice if it was included with the default 
install for 2.067+

It says 0.1.x, maybe when it's over 0.5.x :).
In any case I'm really glad to see this moving forward.

Cool! Is it idempotent if ran twice? -- Andrei

It should be. If you find a case where running dfix on the output 
of dfix causes a change, please file an issue on Github.
