An example of how I would envisage gettext being used in D is:writefln(gettext("%s: unknown variable at line %s"), filename, linenumber); It is a common practice, to define a macro (or equivalent) _(arg) as an alias for gettext(arg) (and N_(arg) for gettext_noop(arg)) because people like brevity. I would suggest using the gettext() functionality for i18n but design the notation used within programs (to access that functionality) according to what best suits the D paradigm.
Is the text you want to translate the actual key? That sounds very stupid. What if I need to change the text?
