Did you see Jacob's dstep too?

I think I read about it here in the forum at some point and somehow forgot about it. I'll definitely give it a go.

I also forgot to say that UFCS was pretty cool when dealing with C functions that take a pointer to a struct. Declaring it as ref in D worked too, which I was surprised about, i.e.

//C header
void doStuff(mystruct *foo, ...);

//D file
extern(C) void doStuff(ref mystruct, ...);
mystruct.doStuff(...);

Obviously "extern(C) void doStuff(mystruct*, ...);" also works but it's nice not to have to explicitly take the address of a struct to use it.

I haven't actually used it myself* but it will surely do a better job than the old htod!

* I'm often really lazy with my calling of C code... I translate as little as possible, sometimes just using void* arguments instead of structs... when possible, of course.
