Perhaps I should have said unusual rather than non-standard. But if you want to understand better what I mean, try doing this in the command line, it works correctly:

cd \

On the other hand, the way D gets the arguments is the same as in C/C++. Doing it differently than that would be unusual, too.

Either way, someone is going to be surprised. I would guess that you're in the minority here with your expectation. It's better then to surprise you than the majority of people who expect the same behavior as in C/C++ programs.
