I'm trying to study Adam Ruppe's terminal.d sub-package and I see the following code segment:

version(demos) unittest
{
    import arsd.terminal;

    void main()
    {
        // . . .
    }

    main; // exclude from docs
}

Looks like a good baby step to take, so in the command line I use:

C:\dub\path\to\arsdpackage\arsd-official>dmd terminal.d -unittest -version=demos
OPTLINK (R) for Win32  Release 8.00.17

OPTLINK : Warning 134: No Start Address


Shouldn't the version identifier demos and the unittest option activate the test block and therefore defines main() which then give the "Start Address"?

Also, what is the isolated main; command right after the main function?
