Alternatively, what is the current best practical

powerfull enough.
and the file I wanted to convert (directX headers) needed quite a bit of
manual intervention
C++ COM objects declare all the methods each time, D one don't
nested unions and structs where a pain.

someone else was working on a tool. I left the "transforms" online as they
are basically all you need to do.
30 mins of search and replace, a few extra align1's and a bit of
reformatting and your there.

I might find out why my last set of changes stopped it working (tried to fix
some problems with defines inside struct defs)
and put the src online.
