I can't imagine anyone that knows D doesn't also know C++, but the

there is an equivalent style allowed in D:

void DoIt();

void MyClass::DoIt()

// do it

You can define MyClass in a .di file without implementations, and then
rewrite it in the .d file with implementations. That's about as close as
you can get.
(Aside: D has no 'inline' keyword, correct? And, should I post
questions
like this post in the learn group? Even if the potential is likely that a
language design discussion may result?)
d.learn is probably the right place, though most people look at both.
You'll get the occasional OCD post about how newbie questions really
should be on d.learn, but it doesn't bother me :)
inlining is done automatically by the compiler as long as it can see the
entire function source and you pass the -inline command line switch to the
compiler.
The theory being -- the compiler probably knows better what things are
good to inline. In practice, this sometimes isn't the case, but it's all
we have to work with right now.
