Oh better, let's try to send a PR to dmd then for today, it
shouldn't be hard if you say it already know where VS is
Knowing where VS is, is the easy part (although it is logic

Getting the environment variables that are set up by a cobweb
of batch scripts is the hard part.
We are not the first to need to do this either!

Well, it's just one batch file to call, if vs path is known, then
