I forgot to do this yesterday (the announcement, not the post) so 
I'm doing it now. It's not so much about pressing buttons as it 
is releasing them (which conjures images of a catch-n-release 
mouse trap, but that's another story).

Hi Ron,

Probably you know this yet but in case you don't here it goes.

The gnome project maintains a 'How Do I do this...' page, it's 
almost gtk and C related but (thank's to the wonderful binding 
from Mike Wey) the 'mental mapping' from C->D + gtk->gtkd is very 
straightforward:

https://wiki.gnome.org/HowDoI/

Antonio.

I seem to remember reading somewhere that it's gone out of vogue 
to thank people in forums. I get it; it adds noise to threads, 
but I still think it's the polite thing to do.

So, thanks, Antonio.

However, if this is now frowned upon on this forum, please let me 
know and I'll stop thanking people.

Thank you for listening.... I mean: oh crap. I did it again.

If you want to do it, go for it!

Thanks!

Little typo at '* returns on value,'? should be 'no value' i 
guess?

In 0007 the 'myTestRig.showAll()' is still in main() in the 
github code as opposed to the explanation in the blog post that 
is has moved to the window class.

The 0007 github code doesn't compile.

button_002_05_release.d(40): Error: undefined identifier 
buttonCaption

buttonCaption is now defined (and unused) in the button class but 
still used in the window class and the button constructor still 
uses the label argument.

Wow! I thought I was being sooooooo careful.

Thank you once again for catching all these errors, mistakes, 
typos, and outright faux pas.

I forgot to say, these have all been corrected.
