I’ve missed a lot of D news during my mostly-offline, 3-week trip to the States. I decided not to dig through the newsgroups to sum it all up here, primarily because my hot dog shop is so busy now (thanks to a fantastic magazine review and several favorable blog posts) that I’ve hardly had time to even look at a computer. I did manage to get caught up on some Derelict stuff and I’ve been checking newsgroups for the latest announcements.

That brings me to the very latest, which is the real point of this post. Rainer has announced a new version of VisualD, which includes Alexander Bothe’s DParser from Mono-D. There’s also a new “Compile & Run” command along with support for LDC.

On a side note. I was surprised to learn at DConf that Rainer wasn’t already an expert at the Visual Studio framework when he first started the project, but had to learn a lot along the way. He surely must be by now!
