That's because a memory-mapped file appears directly in your program's
memory address space as if it was an array of bytes (ubyte[]). No
interpretation is imposed upon the contents. If you want lines out of
it, try casting the memory to const(char)[] and using
std.algorithm.splitter to get a range of lines. For example:
auto mmfile = new MmFile("myfile.txt");
auto data = cast(const(char)[]) mmfile[];
auto lines = data.splitter("\n");
foreach (line; lines) {
...
}
