OSX.

Would one simply do something like this?

"dmd main.d somelib.dylib"

Thanks!

i don't remember exactly, but if this not work for you try 
something like this
dmd main.d -L-L/path/to/lib.dylib
i think there was a topic on this on wiki

That worked! Just one too many -L's though. It ended up being

dmd main.d -L/path/to/lib.dylib

 dmd main.d -L/path/to/lib.dylib

I have another question.

Is there a way to specify a search directory and then link to 
each dylib?

I have someone that I'm trying to help by the way, and I don't 
have a Mac :P

I was pretty sure that -L-L/path/ seemed to be the way to add the 
search directory, but if I have a dylib named libsomelib.dylib, 
would I pass -Lsomelib, -Llibsomelib.dylib, -Lsomelib.dylib, or 
something else?

Thanks for you help.

P.S.
Only a guide for compiling and linking on Windows is in the wiki. 
That should definitely be changed.

with libglfw.dylib it works for me

evilrat$ dmd test.d 
-L-L/Users/evilrat/Documents/prog/glfwbuild/osx/_install/lib 
-L-lglfw

note that first -L is dmd flag to pass linker options, but if you 
linking just single lib you can simply add it as source file like 
this "dmd test.d testlib.a"
