Currently, I am using Eclipse and DDT
According to Mafi. Under Re: Making D Lang More easy. (d.D forum)
For Eclipse there is for example DDT and there are VisualD and Descent.
http://code.google.com/a/eclipselabs.org/p/ddt/

Version: Helios Service Release 2
Build id: 20110218-0911

That solve most of my path issue.

-od"bin"
-of"bin\TestD.exe"

-I"src" // where all my source file are located.

"src\cc\Lang\EMPTY.d"
"src\cc\Lang\all.d"
"src\main.d"
