Please help.

Greetings,

Try a with statement:

Another thing people commonly do is omit the "SANE_STATUS_" 
prefix in the D declarations, instead using "SaneStatus." if 
desired

So, with both, it could look something like this:

----

import std.stdio;

enum SaneStatus {
    good = 0,
    unsupported
}

void main(string[] args) {
    auto status = SaneStatus.good;
    with(SaneStatus) {
        if(status == good)
            writeln("Great!");
    }
}

----

Hope this helps! :)
