Does this work for you?

 unittest {
 	char[] c = "Computer".dup; // Take a copy of the string literal.
 	ArrayCopy!(char)(c, 3, c, 2, 4);
 	assert(c == "Coputeer");
 	c = "Computer";
 	ArrayCopy!(char)(c, 2, c, 3, 4);
 	assert(c == "Commputr");
 }


I suspect that you are trying to (inadvertantly) modify a string literal.
