Seems like you have inspired people...

That is kind of neat. While I can say that D can perform technically the
same feat via pragma(msg, ...) and importing a file directly (would
leave a comment on the blog, but there isn't a spot for it), the fact
that you can execute arbitrary code in a block at compile time that can
use the *actual* i/o routines you would use at runtime is pretty impressive.
Stefan would have a field day with this power :)
