Yes, please.
OK, this is the 3rd or 4th time somebody asked about this.
What exactly is involved in making a post on the D blog?
Hopefully it would not require too much more effort, because I
usually wouldn't have much time to spend on top of the time I
already spent writing the original post. If it's just a matter
of copy-n-pasting the text somewhere, then perhaps somebody
could do that for me?
For a more general audience, I would suggest to expand the first
paragraph and tell more about your pet project.
Some parts should be extended, so non-D-programmers can
understand it. For example, the mention of `pragma` is probably
confusing for C/C++ people.
Inserting a few links would be nice (e.g. for std.array.split).
If you really want to put in work, insert lots of code examples
with C and D versions.
Finally, a question: Did you count lines of code C vs D? Or
better yet, number of tokens?
Anyways, I was tempted to send the forum link around, so it is
already a nice blog post as it is.
