That's a library issue. Has nothing to do with the language.
I agree completely, but for all practical purposes basic parts of the standard
library that are used by almost everyone are part of the language. Heck, in
many
languages (D being one of them) you can't even write a canonical hello world
program w/o the standard lib.
Sure you can!
extern (C) int puts(char *);
void main() {
puts("Hello world!\0".dup.ptr);
}
Pretty!
