"Hello World"[0..$]

But I want make like it witout use variable name.

"Hello World"[0..?.indexOf("o")]

I am using it:


// Tipo Nulo.
class None {}

// Função slice()
auto slice(T1, T2, T3 = None)(T1 conteudo, T2 inicio, T3 fim = 
T3.init) {
	int start, end, startlen;
	static if (is(T2 == int)) {inicio = inicio < 0 ? conteudo.length 
+ inicio : inicio;}
	static if (is(T3 == int)) {fim = fim <= 0 ? conteudo.length + 
fim : fim;}
	static if (is(T2 == int)) {start = inicio;} else static if 
(is(T2 == string)){start = conteudo.countUntil(inicio);}
	static if (is(T2 == string)) {static if (is(T1 == 
string)){startlen = start + inicio.length + 1;} else {startlen = 
start + 1;}}
	static if (is(T3 == int)) {end = fim;} else static if (is(T3 == 
string)){end = startlen + conteudo[startlen..$].countUntil(fim);}
	static if (is(T3 == None)) {return conteudo[start];} else 
{return conteudo[start..end];}
}

Does until [1] do the trick?

"Hello World".until("o") // => "Hell"

I want more support inside slice []

The exact syntax you want is impossible. The closest you can get 
is to use an `enum` constant, which is essentially a named 
literal:

enum hello = "Hello World";
writeln(hello[0 .. hello.countUntil("o")]); // "Hell"

I don't want use enum, I want use literal.
