I would love to rewrite the copybyvalue and copybyreference schematics, to one, and then keep that one. I think its counter intuitive that the same syntax is used for both, and tbh, if everything was just copybyvalue, one would be able to use by reference, if they wanted to by explicitly declaring so, using pointers/references/ect., this is the one thing that bugged me mostly in Java, when coming from C, and the thing that bugs me the most about D.<br>

Just asking out of curiosity. With all the great language features, I'm sure that many of you have thought about this.<br>
<br> For me, I figured a good start would be your basic Unix/Linux/BSD utilities, like cat and grep. I figure it may make the code easier to read and maintain as well as potentially improve the quality of the software. Of course, most of these are so old they're probably quite bug free, but some probably could use a rewrite. Some may even benefit for threading.<br>

Anyone else?<br>
