but you don't have to drop D to use C libraries! some of my code is full of calls to libc and other C libs, neatly wrapped in D structs. i don't really want to remember when to write "->" anymore, or "oh, i forgot a typedef here, so it will be `struct my_s`", or use C macros instead of D templates. after decades of C experience i dropped it without any doubts, and i surely don't want to get back. you see, i have alot of libraries written for C during this years, and i dropped all that, 'cause D is so "better C", that there are no reasons to use C anymore. and i always can wrap C library if i need that, most of the work on wrapping can be done with sed. ;-) so i really can't see any reason to go back to C instead of using D with C libraries.
