In the Phobos documentation for std.format:

"[O]utput is sent do this writer. Typical output writers include std.array.Appender!string and std.stdio.BlockingTextWriter."

std.stdio doesn't have a "BlockingTextWriter" but it does have a "LockingTextWriter".

Typo? Name change? "BlockingTextWriter" is scheduled for deprecation?

Also --

It was only after I cut and pasted the documentation fragment that I noticed that  output is sent "do" this writer.
