digitalmars.D - Fixing sample files

This is a bit embarrassing.

It seems that the samples fail because they use std.stream, which has been 
removed. Anyone want to fix them to use stdio instead?

Since dmd is shipped with DUB one can just put some embedded SDL 
descriptions and put undead as dependency.

A bit off topic but all these examples are very old-fashioned 
imho. Everything could be replaced with more idiomatic D code, 
using phobos.

Better to just fix them.

If you're willing to do it?

If you agree on the principle then let's rather make a call to 
contributions in another post ? I'm sure that many users will 
propose something. I'm volunteer to supervise the topic and 
eventually to make a common PR in DMD.

Another option, remove the samples, as suggested on IRC.

Walter has already submitted a couple of fixes. Best leadership is by 
example, so if you're up for it please go ahead and post PRs for the 
fixes. Thanks! -- Andrei

Seems like compiling the samples should be part of the regular CI builds.
