Hello,

TL;DR: see here https://github.com/jll63/methods.d/blob/master/README.md for an explanation of what open multi-methods are, if you are not familiar with the idea.You may also want to read my article on Code Project https://www.codeproject.com/Articles/635264/Open-Multi-Methods-for-Cplusplus11-Part-1

Earlier this year I attended Ali Çehreli's talk at C++ Now. He did a good job: I walked out with the desire to learn about D and see how it measures up against C++, especially in terms of meta-programming and language extensibility. The first programming language I learned is Forth and I did some Lisp programming, so as you can imagine, my expectations are high.

As an experiment, I decided to try to port parts of my yomm11 library to D. The experience turned out to be pleasant and I ended up writing a full implementation, with some friendly help from Ali and others in the Learn forum.

I think that what I have now is good enough to show. The git repo is here https://github.com/jll63/methods.d and I will post a package to the registry soon.

If you have the inclination, feel free to review and comment. This is my very first D project and I certainly have missed some idioms and been clumsy at times.
