Hi,

In D2:

Stream file = new BufferedFile("sample.txt");
file.write("hello");
file.close();

Produces...

src\gie2\main.d(11): Error: function std.stream.Stream.write called with 
argument types:
	((string))
matches both:
	std.stream.Stream.write(const(char)[] s)
and:
	std.stream.Stream.write(const(wchar)[] s)

Do I have to do this?

file.write(cast(string)"hello");

Seems ugly.

Sorry, seems like I should have used writeString. Now it makes some sense.

You can set the type of a string literal using a suffix:

"hello"c - string
"hello"w - wstring
"hello"d - dstring
