digitalmars.D.bugs - writef format bug
- nascent (3/3) Feb 20 2006 At least I believe this is a bug.
- Derek Parnell (13/18) Feb 20 2006 That is because '%c' is not a valid format specifier.
At least I believe this is a bug.
writefln("%c", 's');
gives me a format exception.

See http://www.digitalmars.com/d/phobos/std_format.html for details.
Use '%s' instead and it will format your character as a string.
D's writefln is different to printf(). The format specifiers in D just tell
D how you want it formatted, not what datatype you are supplying. It knows
that already.
