Hey all, I'm going over some examples in Alexandrescu's book, but I guess
something has changed in the language because the example isn't working for me.

The simple example:

void main(string[] args)
{
	uint[string] freqs;
	foreach(lines; stdin.byLine()) {
		foreach(word; split(strip(lines))) {
			++freqs[word.idup];
		}
	}
	foreach(key, value; freqs){
		writefln("%6u\t%s", value, key);
	}
	din.getc();
}


This throws an error during compile, like:
main.d(11): Error: no property 'ByLine' for type '_iobuf'
main.d(11): Error: function expected before (), not 1 of type int
main.d(11): Error: foreach: int is not an aggregate type

So seemingly byLine is no longer an existing function on stdin.  What is the
current version of what this code is trying to do?

Perhaps you missed an import

Hmm... maybe my compiler was out of date.  I downloaded DMD again and tried
your code, and it seems to build fine now.  

Sorry for the trouble then, thank you for setting me on the right path Andrej.
