Hello,

I haven't found the way to have custom modules linked by dmd like stdlib ones. For instance, if program P imports modules M and std.string, I need to manually write a build command like:
	$ dmd -w -ofP P.d M.d
What have I missed?

Nothing. DMD automatically links with Phobos.lib when you compile your app. But it does not automatically compile and link any non-Phobos modules you import unless you explicitly pass them on the command line, as you have done. There's a tool that ships with dmd, called rdmd, that will do what you want if you use it in place of dmd.

Add stuff to this file if you want dmd to automatically link your libs.

Well, not really automatic, the dmd.conf/sc.ini file is read by dmd, and can be edited for other libraries/files/commands.

Thank you all, now I understand. I will not modify dmd.conf, as imported modules change for every app. But try rdmd when I have for that.
