Where can I find the function to convert from c-style string to a normal D 
string? It used to be toString in std.string, but that one is deprecated.

Thanks.

I don't think it works the other way, though, you still have to use 
std.string.toStringz().

Most (all?) conversions in std.conv implement the whole round-trip, there's no
reason for 
string <-> char* to be any different. File a bug and see what happens.
