Yes, you are right about that, the `-of` switch. I was looking for it on the link
you gave, but couldn't find it before.

I tried non-space inbetween `testing` and `-of`, but it doesn't work.

I also changed the `Set Includes and Arguments`, but no good effect either.
It seems Geany always puts the `-of` switch, even if it's not there in the
settings.

Now I just don't know anymore. I think I will ask on a forum somewhere. If
I get to know the solution, I will let you know. Thanks for your help :)

Regards

Because the dmd doesn't support '-o' which makes it special from other
common compilers. No idea why it does work on your system but see the
manual link I posted in my last mail, there is also '-of' mentioned and
not '-o'.
Er, could you try dmd -of"testing"? Maybe it doesn't like the space
between the option and the filename. I believe to remind something like
this. That dmd is just strange.

Of course, this isn't a solution.

Sure, just try it. I don't know the DMD very well because I don't use
the D language much at all and I was never sure about the licencing
issues with DMD (I prefer free software).

GDC instead is completely free software and uses the
common compiler options like '-o' and similars.
