given a list of files (or any strings) and then maybe I want to

Even without ranges, you can do this:
string [] fileList;
... fill list
if (sort)
sort(fileList);
foreach(filename, fileList) {
... do something;
}
because sort works in-place.
Sorry, somehow this submitted in the middle, even without the
captcha.
Please see the later version.
Also, there is std.array.array for the ranges you want to convert
to arrays.
For example, if a is an array, a.map!(x = x * 2).array
produces an new array of doubled values (as opposed to a lazy
range produced by std.algorithm.map).
