I think I've got it working now.

Setting dates
I've been trying to set a date for my program (a small struct): import std.datetime; auto date = cast(DateTime)Clock.currTime(); setDate(date.day, date.month, date.year); Problem is that day & month are not integers. And date.day.to!int doesn't work either.
