I have placed source code for "etc.bigint", a module and package for manipulated unlimited precision integers, online at:

http://www.fast-forward.info/ramonsky/stuff/d/bigint.html

(PS. I found it mildly inconvenient that I had to put supporting files in directory "etc/bigint_files/" instead of "etc/bigint/", because D wouldn't let me have a module and a directory with the same path).

There is no binary - it's "build-it-yourself". But there /is/ documentation.

Over the next few days I'll try to get this also copied onto dsource (maybe even with a binary this time, who knows?)

By the way - how does one persuade the dmd linker to produce a library? Probably a dumb question I know, but I always just linked everything against main to get an executable.
