Did you install Tango? It sounds like you're trying to use Tango, an
alternative runtime library for D.

If you're open to a non-Tango example, you might try:

As jcc7 mentioned it sounds like you're using a Tango example without
installing Tango first. For more details about starting with D:

My reply before checking the docs:

if its not working after installation then the import paths are incorrect.

you could start by checking that.

and also note that tango trunk and the latest tango release are somewhat 
different.

also it looks like you should be using trunk because the next release is due
out 
shortly.

My reply after checking the api docs:

I don't see tango.io.FileRoots anywhere, check the version of tango you are 
trying to use.

prebuilt package can not provide to you right here is because it is from
