I've installed D compiler, and when i try to run a D script with filename without an extension/file type named: program

Now, when I rename my scirpt file : program
To: program.d

and execute it by: ./program.d

I no longer have an error.

Is this an intended behaviour?

In such questions it's important to show your shebang since that's what runs your script.

Given your symptoms I guess you're using the following:

#!/bin/env rdmd

And indeed rdmd won't call your script if it doesn't have the proper extension.

Try using this instead:

#!/bin/dmd -run
