If you don't want object files to be generated (actually they 
must be generated in order for linker to build exe) compile with 
rdmd (it will put object files in a temp directory so your 
project folder is kept clean):

rdmd --build-only (dmd parameter here) main.d

also rdmd will take care of your dependencies so you just have to 
pass it your "main" file.
