How can I extend

string line = "car    wash";

line.strip.splitter!isWhite.joiner("_").to!string

so that

car   wash

becomes

car_wash

and not

car___wash

?

Doh, that was too easy:

line.strip.splitter!isWhite.filter!(a => 
!a.empty).joiner(lineSeparator).to!S;

Sorry, for being lazy ;)

Use std.string.tr.

std.string.squeeze might be more appropriate.

But with tr you can also replace the spaces with the underscore.

Thanks!

It would be nice to have a lambda-variant of std.string.tr to 
call like

x.tr!isWhite(['_'])

If your text is ASCII, then there is std.ascii.whitespace that 
can be given as argument to std.string.tr.

is of string but

std.string.tr needs [string] as argument.

How does that work?

string a = "test \t \t test";

writeln(a.tr(std.ascii.whitespace,"_","s"));
