Bug 15277 – unable to compile .d flies with numbers at the beginning of the name

any .d file with a number in the beginning of the name will not compile with dmd. filename -> 1.d or -> 1a1aa1.d ----- void main () {} -------------------- if I rename with a leading letter dmd seems to like it. I see 1.d: Error: module 1 has non-identifier characters in filename, use module declaration instead. this is dmd 2.069 rc2 I am looking to see if imports have this problem also.

As far as I can see, everything works as expected here. dmd doesn't mind "1.d" as a file name. What's rejected is "1" as a module name. The module name is taken from the file name when there is no module declaration (`module foo;`). Module names are specified to be identifiers [1]. Identifiers are specified not to start with digits [2]. Closing as invalid. Please reopen if I'm missing something here.
