That's pretty cool. I didn't know anything about this. Taking the example from here:

Yeah, readline is a really nice lib, super simple interface. I think it is in large part responsible for the GPL's success too since it is so useful, so simple, and so correctly licensed :)

And knowing how extern(C) is so easy is good to know too - using any C lib from D can be done similarly and for a lot of libs it is actually this simple.

BTW I also have a comparable function in my terminal.d:

though of course then you gotta download my code file and add it to your build (which is easy but still). mine also works on windows!
