Hi 

If you make one semantic error, DMD will spit out thousands of bogus errors so
that the console window is overflowed so you cant actually tell what the real
error is :(

How can I get DMD to stop after the first error?

If you're use MS Windows, you can just pipe the output to a file, then read it
back in, and just scroll down until you find the first error.

Example at the WinXP commandline:
---------------------------------
dmd mysource.d > output.txt
type output.txt | more

For information about "more" just type in "help more".

Batch files aren't completely useless.. ;)

For that matter, I never quite understood why Walter used a linux script and 
a script interpreter to compile the D examples, when the script could very 
easily be rewritten with a batch file.  Seems like overkill.

The pipe isn't even needed here... "more output.txt" is practically the
same as "type output.txt | more".
