           Summary: wc example for D2 doesn't compile
           Product: D
           Version: 2.027
          Platform: All
               URL: http://digitalmars.com/d/2.0/wc.html
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: www.digitalmars.com
        AssignedTo: nobody at puremagic.com
        ReportedBy: daniel.keep+d.puremagic.com at gmail.com


Attempting to compile the example program given at
http://digitalmars.com/d/2.0/wc.html results in the following:

irc.d(54): Error: constructor std.stream.BufferedFile.this () does not match
parameter types (char[])
irc.d(54): Error: cannot implicitly convert expression (arg) of type char[] to
HANDLE
irc.d(54): Error: expected 3 function arguments, not 1

This appears to be because the ctor that accepts a filename wants a string, not
a char[], but the compiler is trying to match it to the ctor that takes a
HANDLE.

Replacing all instances of char[] with string appears to fix the problem as
well as being idiomatic D2.
