that's why newcomers should NOT try to learn the language using
reference documentation for standard library.

when i started to learn D, i found and read Andrei's book, Ali's book
and Philippe's "template tutorial". and i never complained that phobos
reference documentation is "hostile to beginners" -- 'cause it's NOT
for beginners. you are expected to learn the language before reading
reference dox.

yet i agree that formatting can be better. but as i tend to produce
completely unreadable mess when i trying to fix any formatting, i
didn't do anything in that direction.
