Like Go/Rust, why not to have "func" keyword before function declaration

How do you search for a function definition?
In Ruby I search "def some_name" and I find it. In Go I can probably
search "func some_name". In Rust, "fn some_name".
Browsing some C code for Ruby I search with regex with "^some_name"
because they have the convention of writing functions like this:
return_type
function_name(...) {
}
It works, but if you stop following that convention you are lost.
So... how do you search for a function definition in D without an IDE?
