Consider using byLine() instead. (Important: byLine uses an internal buffer for the line; so, don't forget to make a copy if you want to store the line for later use.)

Okay, call me lazy... just don't call me late for dinner! :-)

One cool way is a zipped sequence:

import std.stdio;
import std.range;

void main()
{
    foreach (i, line; zip(sequence!"n", File("deneme.txt").byLine)) {
        writefln("%s: %s", i, line);
    }
}
