So, not the German "Das"...I was aware of -betterC, but was curious about Walter referring to it everywhere of late as DasBetterC.

I was in Muenchen when I noticed the "Das", so yes, it works as the German Das.

Subset of the D language that acts as a “better C”. No GC, manual allocation etc. and no runtime I believe.
