Does anyone have a link to a Oct2Dec converter? I found ultox and xtoul, many thanks to SpottedTiger.

Octal to decimal seem a little harder to locate.

strtoul decalred in std.c.stdlib will probably do what you want, google for it's MAN page or similar.  Or as Frank suggested Tango has it covered.

I imported std.c.stdlib and got a compile error along the lines of:
data type std.c.stdlib stroul conflicts with stdlib stroul...
so I tried using stroul in stdlib by itself but it will require several conversions to make it work correctly.

Think I will write a function from scratch, wish me luck :)

Try calling "std.c.stdlib.stroul" in your code instead of just "stroul".
