I'm specifically thinking of the GNU Octave codebase:

It's a fairly old and complicated C++ codebase. I would like to
see if I could slowly introduce some D in it, anywhere.
- This can be a problem if the project is very active. This issue
was noticed by the people who converted DMD compiler from C++ to
D and finally a dedicated tool was used, improved until some CI
tests passed.
Now, as I understand it, I would need to begin with making
`main` a D function, because D needs to initialise the runtime.
Is this correct?
- The runtime can be initialized by hand if it's required, see
core.runtime.Runtime.initialize()
