I'm reading a .d file, and for debugging purposes I need to output the 
content of that file (or some of it) to the screen in certain ways.

What I usually do is read the part I want to output in an array then 
write that array
#writefln( text );

The problem is, the text itself could be something like:
printf("%d stuff", stuff);
in which case I would be outputting a string that contains a "%d", thus 
the writefln function would expect me to supply an integer, which I 
obviously didn't do, and I get an std.formatter error and the program 
aborts.

Can I do unformatted output? or is there a work around?

Thanks!

I suggested: writeln(text);
