If you're distinguishing between small, experimental programs and
fully-fledged apps worthy of being released to the masses, then yes.
Empire, for instance, although this wasn't written with a GUI library.
If you're distinguishing between games/other 'fun' apps and programs with a
real practical purpose, then yes again. MDI Edit, one of the example apps
bundled with SDWF, is a simple text editor application.
If you want something that fits both definitions of a serious application,
then Entice Designer may be the best example so far. But that's still of
interest primarily to D programmers, and especially users of one GUI
library. So I suppose the next stage is to bring out something that meets
the criteria for "serious" and will have more widespread appeal.
