string comparison

[doubleagent]

Andrei's quick dictionary illustration [in his book, 'The D Programming
Language'] doesn't seem to work.  Code attached.

On my computer, with d2-0.5.0, I got the following output while testing.

andrei
0	andrei
 andrei
1	andrei


Also, why doesn't 'splitter' show up on the site's documentation of
std.string?  And what advantage does 'splitter(strip(line))' offer over
'split(line)'?
