This may sound silly, but when working with D I sometimes catch myself just sitting here admiring the beauty of a source file. It never ceases to amaze me how neat and concise D code can be. I don’t think I’ve just sat and stared at a source file that way since I first started learning how to program. There’s something quite gratifying about it at times. And now that I’m using D more than ever, I often find myself in quite the good mood when I finally close my text editor at the end of a coding session. I hope I’m not the only one

D Bits- Setting Thread Affinity on Windows in D April 3, 2012When working with D's standard library, it is sometimes necessary to work around missing declarations in the core.sys.windows.windows module. It's a fairly big module as is, but it isn't all-inclusive. If you are doing any heavy-duty Windows development, you'll likely want a... […]
- Putting D's Array Slices to Use March 8, 2012I've been working on BorderWatch a little bit every day. My focus has been on getting the ASCII engine, Arthur, into a state that will let me get a game up and running. With the few modules that I've implemented so far, I believe I'm there. One of the D features that has... […]
- BorderWatch March 5, 2012I'm afraid I'm going to be waving goodbye to Dolce. It's been sitting, bit rotting, for a while now. Some time ago I encountered two major issues with my Allegro binding in Derelict 2. One, a random (and I mean... […]
- Compiling Data into a D Executable March 3, 2012I'm supposed to be posting part three of my series on binding D to C. It's going to be boring to write, so I keep putting it off. But I *will* get to it eventually. In the meantime, I wanted to blog about a neat feature of D that I'd sort of forgotten about until I needed it. I'm working on an ASCII-based strategy/simulation game in the.. […]
- Binding D to C Part Two January 31, 2012This is part two of a series on creating bindings to C libraries for the D programming language. In my previous post, I discussed the difference between dynamic and static bindings and some of the considerations to take into account when deciding which way to go. Here in part two,... […]
- Setting Thread Affinity on Windows in D April 3, 2012
It’s been happening for me with Python for quite a while now. I’m glad to hear D is so concise.
You are not alone my friend! Oh no, you most definitely are not alone!
You can now officially call yourself a fanboi!
Heh, the English instructor in me won’t quite let me go that far
Yeah, D is for soul.
