I write the ref count pointer and the scoped point in D.
it just Like cpp's shared_ptr , waek_ptr and unique_ptr .
Now, it is Developing.
I will write more test before the frist release.
And the docs is null.

What's would be the advantages of smart pointers in D?
Simple, Same Advantages you would get with C++ smart pointers.
Not quite true, there is at least one huge advantage - thread-locality.
That is C++ smart_ptr has to be atomic, while its D counter part may
safely be non-atomic because everything is TLS be default.
Of course, there is a place for smart pointer shared across threads, but
I'd personally go with message passing instead.
