You never use the full name, it's always instance.digest() http://dlang.org/library/std/digest/digest/digest.html could be used with the full name. But ironically the name is not used outside of std.digest so it's usually not necessary to use the full name. So it doesn't look nice in the docs but it's not a huge problem when writing code.
