For reducing a D Interface file dependency when generating it with the `-H` flag for DMD, you can't import a module on the top level.
Take a look at that example:
```d
module a;
import std.stdio;
void printSomething(string a)
{
   writeln(a);
}
```

If you generate the .di interface file while using dmd, it will pretty much generate:

```d
module a;
import std.stdio;
void printSomething(string a);
```
Using the import inside the function scope, it will make the work easier for dmd:
```d
module a;
void printSomething(string a)
{
    import std.stdio;
    writeln(a);
}
```

Will actually generate only:
```d
module a;
void printSomething(string a);
```

This will greatly reduce the number of import and dependencies you need if you ever need to distribute a library.
