For example, i want to embed base64 image data in the executable then
access it during runtime. Is this possible? if so how?
There are various ways to do it. If your data is not too much, one way
is to use a "hex string". You can also use mixin(import("...")).

What's the purpose of the mixin portion of that? The documentation for
file imports say that `import("...")` produces a string, so `__gshared
immutable myFile = Base64.encode(import("myFile"));` should work
perfectly, provided "myFile" is in a path passed to dmd with the -j switch.
