Hello,
I've known D for about two weeks right now, and I kind of like it, a
lot, but, I had a lot of trouble figuring out how to set up a
programming environment. I mean, there were a few choices but some
were abandoned, some things were only for D1(tango??) and others were
so bug ridden that I could not really use without wanting to punch a
hole in a wall every 10 minutes :P. Anyway, I did manage to set up a
satisfactory programming environment with programmers notepad.
Well, for D2 I use VisualD with MS Visual Studio Shell (free stripped
down version of Visual Studio).
Being C++ convert I find it very comfortable, plus nice debugging
experience and profiler support built-in.
Take a look: http://dsource.org/projects/visuald
I know I'm not the best programmer here by a long shot, but I still
like to support D so I made a video tutorial on how to set it up:

I've set up a basic SDL project with a little help of Derelict, I
think I'll be making more tutorials in the future, It'll be about
simple things like, programming a particle system in d or maybe a
simple ray tracer. Don't have anything planned out yet, But whatever,
I can think ahead later! Hope you find my video useful.
