The spellchecker in DMD currently only checks for custom identifiers. But is it possible to misspell built-in keywords as well, e.g. pramga(msg, "x"); // ^^ Perhaps the spellchecker could include the keywords to the look-up list as well.

Everyone: is there a singular list of all the keywords somewhere?

(In reply to comment #1) > Everyone: is there a singular list of all the keywords somewhere? Inside the compiler or one of the alternative lexers. I think this is of questionable value - basic syntax highlighting makes this unnecessary.

that's not a good idea. The spell checker is a help to fix typo in **identifiers** so if you add keyword proposal people will end up being proposed to use a keyword that would not work ! there is only `pragma` and `assert` BTW who have a CallExp like syntax.
