is rdmd ready for primetime on Windows?

Grace to mostly Adam Ruppe's help, I got rdmd.exe to work on Windows for some tests.

Essentially rdmd is a build-run program. All you have to do is pass it the main file of your program, and it will take care of finding that program's dependencies transitively, compiling them as well, and then linking everything together. It's a very, very useful tool for projects small and large.

I'd appreciate if other Windows users could try it. The executable is here:

http://erdani.dreamhosters.com/rdmd.exe

and the documentation is here:

http://www.digitalmars.com/d/2.0/rdmd.html

(Ignore the bugs section.)

Is there any docs for the eval switch?

Sorry, I forgot to commit those. Until Walter updates the website, here is the updated doc with --eval, --loop, and --main:
