&gt; I don&#39;t think console output is unbuffered.  I think it&#39;s line-buffered by<br>
&gt; default.  Although it does differ and vary; I think on Windows<br>
&gt; std.stdio.write(&quot;hello\n&quot;) doesn&#39;t flush but on Linux it does.<br>

</div>LOL, MS resource compiler doesn&#39;t use symantec C runtime.<br>
In fact sc runtime didn&#39;t flush, but this was fixed, though I don&#39;t remember where, in phobos or in sc.<br>
