In efforts to actively maintain the D code on RosettaCode and provide

https://github.com/AndrewEdwards/RosettaCode-D. All of the code was 
copied form https://github.com/acmeism/RosettaCodeData but as one may 
guess it does not all compile with the current stable DMD compiler 
(2.070.0).

I am asking the community's assistance to improve the quality of this 
repo and prepare for use in nightly testing of the D compiler.

I think the first thing to do would be to get automated testing 
of those programs, maybe based on the C versions (download, 
compile, compare outputs?) as the language never gets old.

Sorry, just noticed that it's exactly what you're asking for in 
the first place. I'm going to catch some sleep.

what about

- travis-CI ?
- a shell script or a rdmd script to test locally, currently I 
see nothing to build

I can propose a dmd script that get executed by travis-CI
(example output https://travis-ci.org/BBasile/RosettaCode-D)

But now I realize that you probably want to put the project as 
part of the D organization, right ?

Anyway, lot of work to fix them all. There 's even some code that 
rely on Tango!

This would be ideal but Travis-CI presently only supports osx and linux. 
We can start off with this but eventually need a solution that touches 
the four major platforms (FLOW).

None was included because I needed to figure out how to make this into a 
cohesive dub project while independently specifying dependencies for 
each task implementation. Some of these tasks depend on implementations 
of other tasks (e.g., Zebra-puzzle depends on Permutations), some depend 
on other DUB repos (e.g. DerelictSDL2), others depend on miscellaneous 
code in the wild that can or cannot be located (e.g., XML-Input & kxml , 
Window-creation & fltk4d), while others (those used as libraries) 
require specific version switches.

Not necessary, just needs to be actively maintained and referenced by 
Martin's D Project Tester.

Yeah, this is the main reason I'm asking the community to come together 
to improve them. These are the kinds of code that neophytes like myself 
run into in the wild, become frustrated and dismiss the language as 
worthless or overly complicated because we cannot get them to compile.
