Hi,

In Go, I can just install the documentation and later consult it using the godoc command, e.g. `godoc fmt Println` would give the documentation for the Println Function inside the fmt package.

Is there anything like that for D?

Thanks,
Minh

Thank you. That is a good find. But it's not quite what I want. godoc brings up installed documentation while dman opens up dlang site.

I don't think the current D packaging includes documentation.

It would be nice if it did, actually, and if it also bundles the equivalent of perldoc.
