I copied the code below from this site under the std.stdio

If I add import std.stdio to the beginning it get ; expected,
function declaration w/o return type, etc.
Assistance is greatly appreciated.
void main(string args[])
{
auto f = File("test.txt", "w"); // open for writing
f.write("Hello");
if (args.length > 1)
{
auto g = f; // now g and f write to the same file
// internal reference count is 2
g.write(", ", args[1]);
// g exits scope, reference count decreases to 1
}
f.writeln("!");
// f exits scope, reference count falls to zero,
// underlying FILE* is closed.
}
As you note, File is a part of stdio. I think you might have
forgotten to terminate the import statement with a semicolon.
The following should work:
import std.stdio;
void main() {
auto f = File("test.txt", "w");
f.write("Hello");
}
Arrgh. I was so close. Thank you.
