does not seem to work on the Mac.

Is there any way to write in D very large files.  After all I 
would rather write in D than wrap C or C++ code.

  What are you going to be writing? Depending on the issue, it may 
be a Filesystem/OS limitation than a language limitation.

Have you looked for open, lseek(64) and write?

Lseek64 is not available on the Mac.  I have tried lseek on a a 
64 bit OS and it still acts like 32 bit.
