works for me and on the DPaste site:

what platform are you on and what version of D are you using?
are you passing any compiler flags or just running plain ol' 
"$>rdmd test.d" ?

I'm using D-Ide, compiling with "DMD32 D Compiler v2.060" with

Works here as well.

My guess is that the encoding of the source code is not one of the 
Unicode encodings, rather a "code table" encoding. If so, please save 
the source code in a UTF encoding, e.g. UTF-8.

Yes, it was ANSI encoded (I think this is the default encoding in 
D-IDE), I converted the file to UTF-8 and it's compiling.

Thanks for your help.
