That's embarassing.

I realized that there was no index entry for back tick in my book. I've just added that and provided an Index section for the web version of the book. Click "Index (beta)" below to see a currently-ugly but hopefully useful Index section: http://ddili.org/ders/d.en/ Ali

Searching is kinda hard, so I encourage people to ask if something doesn't come up quickly. And then we need to be sure to always answer because their question might be the thing that comes up on some future user's search, and if they see "google it", their reaction might be "what the &^&*%^ do you think brought me here?!?!?!" (at least that's my reaction!)

I did search the net for terms such as "d lang back quoted string" or "d lang multi line string" or "d lang string interpolation" before asking here. However the term "Wysiwyg string" didn't occur to my mind and from what I could gather from the net and the test programs I wrote, I couldn't determine the difference between `-string and "=string. Hence I decided to ask people here. > http://dlang.org/lex.html#WysiwygString Thanks for the help. -- Bahman Movaqar http://BahmanM.com - https://twitter.com/bahman__m https://github.com/bahmanm - https://gist.github.com/bahmanm PGP Key ID: 0x6AB5BD68 (keyserver2.pgp.com)
