Twoapple 0.1.23 alpha

Monday, June 25th, 2007

Twoapple is an Apple II emulator created by Gerald Stocker. He’s doing it with D (else I wouldn’t be writing about it here, eh) and it is, apparently, a Linux-only thing. You can check out, or browse, the source at http://twoapple.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/. From the NG announcement:

It doesn’t do much yet in the way of Apple emulation, but 6502/65C02
processor emulation is working. Next to come will be monochrome video
output.

Sounds pretty cool. Gerald is also wondering if any other 6502/Apple II enthusiasts are about in the D community. If that’s you, raise your hand.

D’s Const Rationale

Sunday, June 24th, 2007

I’ve been out of action for a few days and missed an announcement by Walter a few days back. He has put a page online outlining the rationale behind D 2.0’s new const/final/invariant features. If you know nothing of it are having a hard time understanding it, this page should help clarify it.

GtkD-JS

Tuesday, June 19th, 2007

Not sure how I missed this, but Alan Knowles has released Gtk bindings for DMDScript. With this package, you can create Gtk extensions with D. There doesn’t appear to be a homepage for the project, but you can browse the Subversion repository or read the manual.
