    So am I. D is designed to be an easy transition from C and C-With-Classes. For example, here is some code in C that was translated to D (it's part of the DMD compiler):

    C:

    https://github.com/DigitalMars/Compiler/blob/dmc-cxx/dm/src/...

    D:

    https://github.com/DigitalMars/Compiler/blob/master/dm/src/d...

    They look pretty much the same. The code generated is the same. In those repositories you can also see how I translated the C versions to D with plenty of examples.

    The biggest impediment is the C preprocessor. You wouldn't really want to carry that forward.

    After removing dependency on the C preprocessor, most of the work is global search/replacing things like `->` to `.`.
