Ironically I was already doing this on a shell script carrying 
all my source file names and switches for DMD, but since I 
started to, I did not retest changing back the names on the file 
system to a-b-c. I changed them right now and it works 
flawlessly. Issue solved. Thanks for the tip Steve :) !
