If the article is about scripting, then the article will contain examples of scripts used in business.

For example, to delete all dub caches in a directory:

Version via Windows .bat:
    @echo off

    FOR /D %%f IN ( .\* ) DO (
        IF EXIST .\%%f\.dub (
            echo .\%%f\.dub
            rmdir /q /s .\%%f\.dub
        )
    )

Version via Dlang:

    module dubcache;

    import std.file;
    import std.path;
    import std.stdio;

    void main( string[] args )
    {
        foreach( dir; dirEntries( args[0].dirName, SpanMode.shallow ) )
        {
            if ( dir.baseName == ".dub" )
            {
                writeln( "REMOVED: ", dir );
                rmdirRecurse( dir.name );
            }
        }
    }

or

    module dubcache;
    import std;

    void main( string[] args )
    {
        dirEntries( args[0].dirName, SpanMode.shallow )
            .filter!( a => a.baseName == ".dub" )
            .each!(
                ( a )
                {
                    writeln( a );
                    rmdirRecurse( a );
                }
            );
    }

Remove dub cache in subsirectories:

    module dubcache;

    // Reason:
    //   each cache take 50 - 200 MB of disk space
    // Goal:
    //   scan dirs and remove caches
    //
    // ./
    //   a/
    //   b/
    //     .dub/  <- target
    //   c/

    import std;

    void main( string[] args )
    {
        dirEntries( args[0].dirName, SpanMode.shallow )
            .filter!( a => a.isDir )
            .map!( a => buildPath( a.name, ".dub" ) )
            .filter!( a => a.exists )
            .each!(
                ( a )
                {
                    writeln( a );
                    rmdirRecurse( a );
                }
            );
    }

And we see what it not simple as windows .bat

Perhaps the best version would be a high-level add-on over rdmd with Dlang syntax.
.
"main()" and "import std" will be hidden.
For example, the final result will look like this:

    dirEntries( args[0].dirName, SpanMode.shallow )
        .filter!( a => a.isDir )
        .map!( a => buildPath( a.name, ".dub" ) )
        .filter!( a => a.exists )
        .each!(
            ( a )
            {
                writeln( a );
                rmdirRecurse( a );
            }
        );

and the file will have the extension ".ds"

You mean does Slack have private messages? Yes it does.

No I meant, if this board has such options, don't like to paste email data in their.

Anyway, could you invite me over the following mail:

<my forum username>@gmail.com

That would be nice.

I'm interested in chat discussions.

Nice examples!
