Do you like to write?
char[][] strArray = ["foo".dup, "bar".dup, "baz".dup];
Ok. That's all you're on about? Basically you'd like this:
char[] s = "foo";
and this:
char[][] a = [["foo"]];
etc.
Yes. That's right, and not otherwise :)
Yeah, that would be neat. But typing out ".dup" isn't that bad,
and converting a `string[]` to a `char[][]` is simple:
import std.conv: to;
auto a = ["foo"].to!(char[][]);
Yes, but it is not suitable for multidimensional array of strings.
I suggest that such an option:
str[] strArray = ["foo", "bar", "baz"];
I don't see how adding a new builtin type `str` would solve
anything.
And why in C++ is running `std::vector<std::string>` ?
Really in D can not do something like that?
Maybe a new type will not solve anything, but there should be
other ways to do in D analogue strings of C++.

I would not say `simpler`, and `basic`. I just forgot the right
word, because my English is not good enough.
