digitalmars.D.learn - How do I set file attributes?

std.file seems to have a getAttributes function, but I see no 
corresponding setAttributes function.  What do I do if I want to copy 
the attributes from one file to another?

std.file does not provide that functionality. You'll need to use whatever C functions your OS provides to do that. - Jonathan M Davis
