Issue ID: 20269
Summary: Inconsistencies between `Token.toChar` and various
error messages
Product: D
Version: D2
Hardware: x86_64
OS: Linux
Status: NEW
Severity: minor
Priority: P1
Component: dmd
Assignee: nobody at puremagic.com
Reporter: desisma at heidel.beer
`Token.toChar()` (defined in module `dmd.tokens`) differs from various other
strings found in the frontend (especially thinking of error messages).
For example: `Token.toChar(TOK.variable)` returns `"var"`, while in several
other places the frontend uses the term `variable` instead.
All this should soon or later get unified. I don't think there's a valid reason
to keep those inconsistencies.
