I do, too.
HTML is a markup language specifically created to present text on 
the screen and it is very portable. There's no online requirement 
for viewing HTML either.
A browser is an excellent tool to read it and is installed on 
every platform and device by default.
But it is easily converted or displayed by other software.
HTML is also what ddoc or any other documentation tools generate.
On windows it can be compiled and has a searchable index.

But I share your distaste for online-only documentation. However, 
since it's conveniently installed into 
/usr/share/doc/dmd-[version]/html/d/index.html on my Linux box, 
it's available offline.

You may want to have a look on your hard drive. I'm quite certain 
you've got a local installation, too.
