The following program prints out OS = win32.
Is this the intended behavior?

#!/usr/local/bin/rdmd

import std.stdio;
import std.system;

void main (string[] args) {
  immutable OS os;

That's a local variable that you've defined. Since OS.init 
happens to be OS.win32, that's what you get.

  writefln("OS = %s",os);
}


What you need is the already defined std.system.os:

import std.stdio;
import std.system;

void main (string[] args) {
  writefln("OS = %s",os);
}

Ali,
Thank you. I've got it working.
I had to use writefln("OS = %s",std.system.os); to get it to 
compile.
