Thanks for the link. If you could pls take a look at my code and show me what is wrong. I have read through the tutorial and many does not address certain functions. The D language spec is on the spec so little examples.

Thanks for the reply and compiling and running it. Listdir will only work if a path is specified at the command prompt but not when read from stdin using readln.
