The man files included with DMD 0.149 are out of date. It is my opinion that if the release contains man files, they should be updated (and, ideally, kept up to date) with compiler option changes and such. Updating them is not hard, and I have done so (adding an rdmd as wel); I will attach them to this bug, if I can, or post a URL in a comment otherwise. Thanks, -[Unknown]

Created attachment 2 Updated man pages for DMD 0.149 The attached archive contains updated man pages, where the changes include: 1. A date and other conventional information added to each page. 2. Pages added for dmd.conf (should go in man5) and rdmd. 3. Page about obj2asm corrected for actual Linux behavior. 4. Spacing and formatting of the source groff changed to make editing easier. 5. Output formatting tweaked to show filenames in italics as convention. 6. New changes, flags, and updated wordings folded in. 7. ENVIRONMENT, BUGS, and DESCRIPTION sections added for dmd. 8. SEE ALSO references added to all pages. I tried, as much as possible, to stick with "official" phrasings from the program itself or website. -[Unknown]
