The .zip version works that way. (At least it used to.) Just unzip in any directory:

You don't even need to do that. The binary detects where it is started from and finds the modules and libraries relative to its path.

Hi,

I removed the dmd package and downloaded the .zip. I checked for any files that were left behind when the package was removed and they are gone. I then ran dmd from the zip package, but I get the same result. It would seem that dmd does not work on this particular distribution.
