Hello Stewart,
Perhaps what complicates matters further is that D has three ways of
specifying attributes:
(i) as part of the declaration itself
I more or less only use this.
(ii) in a block delimited by { }
If I remembered that this one even exists, I might use it.
(iii) with a colon to apply to everything that follows until the end
of
the scope
I'd be just tickled if this one were just dropped.
Just my $0.02 because that might make things less complex.
I use all three all the time. It's a nice mini feature of D. No reason
to remove it.
And if you want to remove complexity, start with the bigger chunks of
the D language.
