Description basile-z 2021-05-07 19:44:01 UTC 
from https://dlang.org/spec/intro.html, the first paragraph of 1.1 ends with

> It is also possible to compress D source by storing it in ‘tokenized’ form.

This sentence should be removed, it makes no sense in the current context.
The previous sentence

> This separation of passes makes language tools like syntax-directed editors relatively easy to create

concludes well, no need for a specific example.
