The use of ^Z to indicate end of file is commonplace on Windows. It dates back to DOS because the size of a file was the size it was on disk, so ^Z was used to terminate it.

So it's valid for a Windows C compiler, but not Linux?

I doubt that there's any defined way to mark the end of a source file in C, so maybe mention this alternative form of `__EOF__` under https://dlang.org/spec/importc.html#visualc-extensions ?
