While rdmd is extremey handy, newcomers might often want to

Unfortunately the documentation (mainly on the code:blocks
side) isn't reliable and/or correct and I feel that we should
make it as easy and painfree as possible for newcomers to like
and getting to try/work with D.
I'm now sitting in front of a working installation on a current
Debian/Ubuntu/Mint (which might be pretty often encountered)
and could provide/share a short howto for that scenario leading
to a properly working codeblocks for D.
A) is that welcome/wanted?
B) if so, what's the right place for such a howto?
C) (for the future) is the forum the right place to
introduce/ask about such stuff? If not, apologies for my misuse
and: what's the right place and procedure?
Thanks - R
As you just did it, I think the best option is that you put what
you just did somewhere in the wiki. Then we can work on form,
link that where appropriate.
That'd be great.
