Description Jerry Quinn 2009-02-14 10:25:59 UTC 
Under template instantiation, Symbol is included as an alternative under TemplateArgument.  The syntax of symbol isn't described anywhere, though.

Also, the text below doesn't describe what instantiation looks like with a symbol argument.

I get the impression that Symbol is mistakenly located here rather than under TemplateParameter in the section on template declarations.

The grammar is given here:

dlang.org/template.html#Symbol

And it's described under TemplateAliasParameter.
