Hah I even managed to screw up that "bar" has an 'a' there. Anywho
this works just fine:
size_t[] indexes(string input, dchar target)
{
size_t[] result;
foreach (index, dchar ch; input)
{
if (ch == target)
result ~= index;
}
return result;
}
The cool thing about the foreach loop is that 'index' will point to
the exact code point of the target (it won't just be incremented by +1
on each loop).
