I found this interesting example of version() use

<code>
// By Joey Peters

// pass -version=free to dmd
version(Free) {
  version = FeatureA;
} else {
  version = FeatureA;
  version = FeatureB;
}

void main() {
  // every version has this.
  version(FeatureA) {
    printf("Hello world!");
  }
  // only the non free has this
  version(FeatureB) {
    printf("Deluxe!");
  }
}
</code>

I but from reading die above I get the feeling you also ways need to 
place version + else. What I would be looking for is to be able to do 
this...


...code...

version(debug)
{
	writefln...
}

...code...

version(debugging2)
{
	writefln...
}

...code...

and be able to selectively turn those blocks on and off.

Would -version=debug compile my code, plus turn on the debug version 
section, but not the debugging2 section. Dito for -version=debugging2?

Could I then group them

version(AllDebug) {
  version = debug;
  version = debugging2;
} else {
}

I.e. that with -version=AllDebug I could turn on all debugging, and by 
not defining a -version, no debug code would be in the compile?

Just tested this, the above already works as expected (hoped for), i.e. 
you do not need to define the "default" code in an else{} of version. So 
far so good.

 version(AllDebug) {
  version = debug;
  version = debugging2;
 } else {
 }

This does not work though.

Is there any way to group all the versions in one new version tag?
