It only has one issue from my point of view. The source code listing pages, for example this one: https://vibe-core.dpldocs.info/source/vibe.core.stream.d.html#L288 don't expand horizontally to use the given space in the browser window. Since the vibe.d sources contain many long lines I have to scroll down, find the horizontal scroll bar at the bottom of the page, and then scroll back up and find the function I was looking at. Do you observe the same behavior in your preferred browser, or is this just a problem in Firefox 91? No matter what, thanks for the site. I've been using it a lot!
Re: How to exclude function from being imported in D language?

The exclude keyword or code block in the exclude, would be made sure to not be imported by any means. Now it seems all to be only workarounds. What D just needs is a way to specify the entry point, in which it just defaults to the first main function found, but could be any function given.

It may be so but this need wouldn't exist if either the first program were written in a modular way to begin with or have been refactored to be so as needed (at an earlier time or as you need it now): - main.d contains main() and the high level program logic - foo.d contains constructs that main.d uses The other program is similar: - main.d contains main() etc. - bar.d imports 'foo' from the other program I continuously refactor my programs in that way as they get more complicated and as parts of them get used by other programs. > The exclude keyword I am not aware of that feature in other languages.

You'll have to modify the other program to exclude the `main`
function from compilation.
For example, you could use a [`version` condition][1]:
```d
module otherprogram;
version (Otherprogram_NoMain)
{
// no main function
}
else
{
void main(string[] args)
{
// ...
}
}
// other functions...
```
Then, when you're compiling the program that uses it, you can
pass `-version=Otherprogram_NoMain` on the command line:
```
$ dmd -version=Otherprogram_NoMain myprogram.d otherprogram.d
```
This will include the `main` function from `myprogram.d`, but
exclude the one from `otherprogram.d`.
