Maybe GLFW callback functions can't handled through Derelict

And just to be clear, because the pointers to the callback
functions are being passed to a C API, they *have* to be
extern( C ) -- i.e. they have to have the same calling
convention that the C library expects. If the library functions
used the stdcall calling convention rather than cdecl, then the
callbacks would have to be extern( Windows ). So even a wrapper
that allows you to pass D delegates or function pointers would
still have to internally give GLFW a pointer to a function with
the proper calling convention.
Thanks for the replies. I felt like I was creating a kludge.
I have to confess that the above paragraph is pretty much
incomprehensible to me. Except for "function pointers" the rest
of the terms I have seen before, but can't really make out into a
meaningful whole.
Are they some extremely simple tutorials on bindings and
wrappers? Something with lots of code examples.
