Hello,
in order to have correctly displayed output (before reading

from stdin),
I must call stdout.flush().
I am surprised that you need that. What is your platform?
Normally, stdin and stdout are "tied". Reading from stdin
flushes
stdout automatically.

I am using Xubuntu, 64bit, and GDC as compiler
I've known this to be the case for cin and cout of C++. So,
I've been assuming that to be universally true. Apparently not
for C and D behavior is based on C. I wish std.stdio gave us
C++'s 'tie'.

P.S. This makes some of the examples at ddili.org incorrect as
I never call flush. :-/
The 'tie' is sometimes convenient, but it's not good in Unix
style stdin/stout piping or similar situations with lots of
simultaneous input and output.
