Ali, may I have a Yes or No on permission to use your Programming 
in D examples that I am expanding for a commercial Udemy course 
that I will build.  Of course, I will provide any Copyright 
notice that you provide, if permission is granted.

Once I complete the remaining 200 pages in your book, I'll polish 
and release them for free public usage.  This should assist D 
newbies in mastering D language.

FWIW, the most difficult area to learn in D is definitely the 
'template' feature.

I have Asperger's syndrome, which is on the Autism spectrum.

I need working code to learn from.  So many authors assume that 
their readers can connect the dots, and fill in the gaps.  I 
cannot. But with the cost of text "too cheap to meter', it would 
be good to have a book (even digital pdf) have links to 'full 
working code' in the cloud.  These links could be updated as the 
D language 'mutates'.

Rather than curse the 'darkness', I have lit a 'candle', which 
will be your examples fleshed out into working examples.  Perhaps 
every 10 - 15 years is a good time to catch up with changes to D 
language.

Also, would now be a good time to revise "Programming in D" to 
'Second Edition'?
