I have a enhancement for dub in my mind, which would also solve
your issue. Similiar to setup.py in python you would be able to
define an entry point in dub.json.
"entryPoints": {"foo":"subPackageName"}
Command `dub install mypackage` would create a batch file/bash
script with name foo containing the command `dub run
mypackage:subPackageName -- %*`.
Unfortunately I do not have any time to work on this.
Kind regards

So, I take it that such a feature does not exist already.
Your suggestion sounds nice, but why do you think it would be
necessary to go through a batch file or script? I think it should
be possible from within dub, to feed the chosen compiler backend
with the proper commands to either build or run the appropriate
entryPoint.
