Bruce Moreland won't like it!

From the D style guide:

" Hungarian Notation -

Just say no. "

< :) just kidding>

Seems to support a lot of library functions directly - very nicely, and similar
to C/C++ syntax.

The unanswered question is how much slower are the executables compared to "C"?
If it runs more than 10% slower, I'd be surprised if many CC programmers would
find it useful.

Like you, I'd like to hear from someone who's used this interesting language.
