It looks like that text is what's used as the default arguments for the program at the top of the front page, but as far as I can tell, there's no way to actually see that text without looking at the page's source, so the fact that Google is showing it is rather funny. I do kind of wonder why Google grabbed that instead of the "The D programming language. Modern conve nience. Modeling power. Native efficiency." at the top of the page though. Maybe it doesn't grab headers? In either case, it does make the google search a bit weird. - Jonathan M Davis
