The page at http://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/D_(The_Programming_Language)/d2/Lesson_1/Phobos has a few inaccuracies (for example claims that writefln and writeln are the same). Is the person maintaining it on this newsgroup? Andrei

I don't know who originally created it, but I went ahead and removed the writefln==writeln claim and also added some info on nested comments. It should probably still be changed to use write and writeln for the hello world examples, and then introduce writef and writefln as formatted versions. Sending a non-format-string as the first arg to writef or writefln should *not* be encouraged. I might do that and some other things later if I have time.

Interestingly enough, the example on the Digital Mars D2 website does exactly that. http://www.digitalmars.com/d/2.0/ "writefln("Hello World, Reloaded");"
