I'm trying to convert a snippet from SWT to DWT . I'll try to attach it here
On my machine it does not compile . I'm using Linux . Could someone try it and see if it will in fact compile first .

then he should look in the back of the book. I'm sorry, but I'm through helping him as there is no gratification from doing so.

Note the quotes.  This means it's "figurative" speech.

For someone who criticizes others' grasp of the English language and typing skills, you don't seem to have a very good grasp yourself.

By the "back of the book" he meant this: http://hg.dsource.org/projects/dwt-samples/file/200a229be5ca/, a repository of snippets and examples.  The one you're looking for is in dwtsnippets/table/Snippet38.d.

Of course, you're not actually going to read the useful part of this post, and instead will just bitch like a little girl about how mean everyone is to you.  Whatever.  If you want to be an ungrateful ass, go right ahead. People will stop helping you eventually.

Yeah, keep telling people that.  Eventually there'll be no one left who will reply to you.

Why I post, because your an ungrateful asshole and don't deserve help from others, thus by making a statement that the snippet has been ported others are informed that there is already help for you that you will not accept.
