digitalmars.D - Compiling graphics.graphics

I have a module "main.d" in which I import:

    import std.c.windows.windows;
    import graphics.graphics;

and my source tree looks like this (brackets indicate directories):

    [src]
        main.d
        [graphics]
            graphics.d

When I attempt to compile main.d:

    dmd main graphics\graphics
    graphics\graphics.d: module graphics module and package
    have the same name

This error message seems unusual, since windows.d has the same name as 
package windows.  However, I tried changing the package name to:

    import std.c.windows.windows;
    import gfx.graphics;

and changed the source tree to:

    [src]
        main.d
        [gfx]
            graphics.d

When I attempt to compile:

    dmd main gfx\graphics
    main.d(9): module graphics is in multiply defined

I'm confused how this should be done.  What is the appropriate argument 
syntax to compile main.d with dmd?  Can graphics.d be in a package called 
graphics?

Thanks,

it might not be it but make sure you have the module definition on all source files, like: module something; that help the compiler to figure out what is the real problem. if you try it, please let us know if it was that. Ant

I suspect graphics.d contains "module graphics.graphics;" and changing that to "module gfx.graphics;" would fix it. Regan -- Using M2, Opera's revolutionary e-mail client: http://www.opera.com/m2/

As per Ant's suggestion, I added the following to the top of "graphics.d":

    module graphics.graphics;

That solved my problem!

Many thanks,
