C callbacks?

[BCS]

In C read this as: pointer to function taking ... (stuff) and returning bool

in D the more normal way to write that would be:

typedef bool function(bsp_t* node, void* userData) TCOD_bsp_callback_t;

if you are passing this to C code you will need an exter(C) in there somewhere.

Try it, test it, beat the snot out of it. If it works it's likely correct.

C code and delegates are incomparable but C and function pointers are not.
