This worked for me with Ubuntu. Though I had to use rdmd instead
of dmd.

I'm using a version like this for Windows for one of my programs.

I've found with unix OS's you can't edit text very nice at all
using readln(); etc. Windows doesn't have that problem. I don't
even bother with stuff because of it.
