We should probably revert to having real typedefs.
Should not.
Ok, but don't ask me to use
alias ALfloat = std.typecons.Typedef!(float, "yummyCookie23");
when it could be
typedef ALfloat = float;
! :)
I think this is an entirely palatable idiom:
alias ALfloat = std.typecons.Typedef!(float, "ALfloat");

Funny that you mention it. I had the exact same thought
yesterday and hoped you wouldn't come around with that ...
excuse.
Why would anyone hope a valid idiom were not mentioned?
Actually, that works for me. But it could be DRY and
look like
typedef ALfloat = float;
DRY is DRY. Bloating the language is bloating the language.
