Bug 15786 – Line buffering not activated for stdout when running D programs under Eclipse

When running D programs under the Eclipse terminal, writeln and similar calls ones do not flush the output, because apparently (according to Adam Ruppe) D does not detect the program is connected to an interactive terminal, it thinks it is writing to a normal file.

I'd rather propose to add a new wrapper function because changing the behavior of writeln() would have a negative impact on existing code performances.

What I'm suggesting now is not that writeln flushes all the time (like you said, that might have some niche performance implications). Rather the idea is to fix the interactive terminal detection, so that the D runtime correctly detects the Eclipse terminal as interactive.
