Walter and I were talking this morning that there should be a high barrier of entry for one-liners in Phobos. The "print" function is technically a one-liner (i.e. writefln with the appropriate format string). On the other hand, it may be convivial enough to warrant inclusion, and saves us from embarrassing things such as producing meaningless output when numbers are printed together.

There's been a bit of churn in the PR comments regarding the utility of "print", and discussion diverged into other functions such as "dump" etc. Keeping it on topic: any strong cons and pros regarding the function? I want to either merge or close the PR and move on.


Thanks,

Andrei
