Does anybody know if there's a trick to make DMD-generated programs to read from a redirected input on Windows? I mean:

dmd foo
foo < input

I've been trying but I can't get it to work. I also get wrong (but different) behavior using dmc, visual c++ 2003 and lcc. However bcc, openwatcom and gcc work. Any ideas?

** echo input lines **
import std.c.stdio;
import std.stdio;
import std.cstream;

int main(){
	CFile f = new CFile(stdin, FileMode.In, false);

	for(char c=f.getc(); c!=0xFF; c = f.getc()){
		writef("%s", c);
	}

	return 0;
}

Thanks, Thomas! That worked, but using din was enough. However, it's still not working with C. What's so different with DMC, Visual C++ and LCC that that doesn't work?

Nevermind, I found the problem: I was fflushing after some reads. Thanks again.
