You mean...

import std.stdio;
import std.process;

void main()
{
	system("dir");
}

Yes.  Thanks.  Where can I read more about these below?

Looking in std.process I note that most of these are simply wrappers  
around the C function calls of the same (or similar) name. So, I'd look  
for some documentation on those C functions eg. man pages, or msdn, or  
both.
