I have LDC running on an ARM Mac. If anyone else out there is
an LDC or GDC user, could you knock up a quick shell program to

linker but these tools are all new to me and a bit of help
would save me a lot of trial and error and frustration as I try
to find docs. GDC would be great too.
I have managed to achieve this before on a Raspberry Pi AArch64
Linux Debian where the compiler can link and generate an
executable just in integrated fashion in the one command. The
OSX tools seem rather different however.
I’m going to try installing GDC on the Mac next, have got that
running on the Pi too successfully.
I have ldc installed (from `brew`) on my (also arm) Mac, it works
fine, or do you specifically want to work out which linker to
invoke manually and so on?
I'm not sure if gdc is currently easy to obtain on arm macs. I
think it should work fine but some packages hadn't enabled arm
support on macos yet, last time *I* checked at least.
