I too am a beginner (both at programming and at D).  I have been 
sticking to the dmd compiler (over others such as gdc or ldc) 
mainly because that is what the two reference books[1] I am using 
to learn D have been using.

I've been using vim as the syntax highlighting seems to work 
pretty well out of the box but mainly because I am not familiar 
with any IDEs.  Personally, I find that keeping things simple at 
this point are probably better for the way I work and learn.

The good news is that I have found the people here to be quite 
friendly and helpful when you run into issues.

Good luck!
