Even this one could works:

void main(string[] args)

    auto range = File("text.txt").byLine();

    foreach (line; range)

    {

        {
            writeln(line);
            range.popFront;
            char[] url = range.front().dup;
            range.popFront;
            char[] num = range.front().dup

Thanks readln is perfect. Since I am calling readln in different 
places and I always need to remove the newline character I have 
line=line[0..$-1] all over my code. Is there are better way?

unrelated second question: Why is there no split function with a 
maxsplit parameter?
