Hi all,

last year there has been a discussion about adding a utility method for easily dumping variables during debugging to Phobos [3971]. The effort stalled and after a couple of months I tried to reboot it [4318]. Now this PR got stalled as well and I am rethinking the work. I think dump!(x, y) already got pretty close to the ideal solution and as we probably aren't going to add a new keyword or language feature for this, I think this is the best what we can get atm.

I think the word dump would be too confusing for users based on the history of the term in C. It should be writeFormattedVariableLn. /sarcasm.

Just parodying the frankly ridiculous response to 'print'.
