Yea, I agree. Back in my C/C++ days, I actively avoided doing any string processing whenever I could, just because it was such a PITA.
I've done an awful lot of C/C++ programming that involved handling strings. It was always a lot of tedious work, and I was always reinventing the wheel on that.
But in looking at other "inferior" languages, like BASIC, I was eventually struck by how trivial string handling was for them. I thought D should be able to do that as well.
