Every time

I totally agree with another part of post. Plus the docs is
really suks,
not only I can't write code without copy-past examples,
because it's
simply very hard to understand how to use one ore another
function. Even
simple writeln docs very bloated and 80% (mostly format
futures) do not
needed in real life
I took a look out of curiosity.
https://dlang.org/library/std/stdio/writeln.html indeed has no
direct
exmaple and sends the reader to
https://dlang.org/library/std/stdio/write.html. That one also
has n
direct example and sends the user to
https://dlang.org/library/std/stdio/std_conv.html, which is a
404.
That's pretty bad. I'll create an issue.

Another issue onto the list of thousands, to collect dust for the
next few years til someone decides they want to use their
personal time to fix it. Just to highlight another problem,
there's a lot of trivial to fix issues. Just maintenance really,
like that one you posted. But there is no one going through
fixing them. Well that one might end up getting fixed cause of
the extra exposure.
