auto just helps writing code in a more brief and readable way. The 
compiler infers the type which u are using by the right side of the 
expression, which is extremly handy when u use cascaded templates a lot.

example:
MyTemplateA!(MyTemplateB("foo")) variablename = new 
MyTemplateA!(MyTemplateB("foo"))("aParemterString");

with auto u just have to write it once:
auto variablename = new MyTemplateA!(MyTemplateB("foo"))("aParemterString");

the compiler infers the type of variablename looking at the expression.
