Pls check main's format, D compiler!


"int main(int argc, char* argv[])" is a standard prototype of C/C++'s main
function.
But, the `argv' is an array object of pointers in D.
So, this prototype goes wrong in D
("int main(int argc, char[]* argv)" works because `argv' is a pointer of array
objects.)
I think that it's confusable for C/C++ programmers
(In fact, I saw one who suffers from it.)
