Description Michael 2013-03-09 11:54:25 UTC 
One line sample:

auto currDir = getcwd();


On forum: 
about getcwd - http://forum.dlang.org/thread/pnuxfheeaqwyfjdqwyzw@forum.dlang.org

about dirEntries and absolutePath - http://forum.dlang.org/thread/snegkdvgmutgvxnijjfp@forum.dlang.org

As I assume, all related errors come from bugs in std.utf (or something that used in this module) because:

string cwd()
{
    import core.sys.windows.windows;
    wchar[] ret = new wchar[10240];
    auto n = GetCurrentDirectoryW(to!DWORD(ret.length), ret.ptr);
    return ret[0 .. n].to!string();
}

works good on both Win 32 and Win 64.

Win 8 Pro 64 bit
Dmd 2.062
Visual Studio 2012 Express.
