I'm using Windows and get gaps (blank lines) when using readText and std.stdio.write.

import std.stdio;
import std.file;

void main() {
	string s = readText("s.txt");
	writeln('[', s, ']');
	File("s.txt", "w").write(s);
}

notepad.exe opens alright, (if you don't save as File(.., "wb")). But I'm having trouble with some others like GtkD. Also writeln always does it right.

This works better:

import std.stdio;
import std.file;

void main() {
	//string s = readText("s.txt");

	string s;
	foreach(line; File("s.txt", "r").byLine()) {
		s ~= line~"\r\n";
	}
	s = s[0..$-2];

	writeln([s]);
	
	File("s.txt", "w").write(s);
}

But one text file program says it has solitary carriage returns in it.
