Well actually all I wanted was a counter variable. I can put the thing
in a for loop or while loop, but I thought that a counter variable is
something that the compiler can always add without too much thinking.

Also, BTW, you can still do this with a foreach loop:

size_t idx = ~0;  //hacky, I know.
foreach(x; range)
{
    ++idx;
    ...
}

Heh, I thought I'd never see a use-case for an overflow. Btw., did ya
know you can cram more expressions before the range?

size_t idx;
foreach(x; idx = ~0, [1, 2, 3])
{
    writeln(++idx);
}

That is so... so evil...

I mean the plethora of commas, *shudder*.
