    In my opinion what I have explained in my answer is not obvious
    stuff, seeing how many solutions/programmers on Rosettacode fail.

    My point was that in my opinion there is no such single example that
    satisfies your requests, and that your requests are bad. If you put
    too much stuff in a single example, the result is not what I will
    call a good example for very public D code. So you have to put only
    a limited amount of stuff in the example, or you have to show more
    than one example.

    If you want a single example, the second on Wikipedia is the one I like:
    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/D_language#Example_2

Honestly I would rather meet a site that has several simple examples
illustrating the capabilities of a language, instead of a single one,
thats messy.

Of course. I'm just talking about the greeter example here.
