The current status is that everything compiles, but far from everything 
runs. I'm trying to collect a list of snippets that doesn't work and 
then try to fix them. I think the best approach is to try and fix as 
many snippets as possible before moving to D2.

Here's the list of the status of the snippets I've tested:

https://github.com/d-widget-toolkit/dwt-mac/blob/master/todo.taskpaper#L12

The @run tag indicates the snippet doesn't crash but it seems somethings 
aren't working properly.

The snippets I'm using are these:

https://github.com/d-widget-toolkit/org.eclipse.swt.snippets

They are actually for the D2 port but they're easy to adapt to D1. It's 
mostly just changing the import statements.

I'm using DMD 1.072. I know for sure that version works with Tango. I'm 
only compiling 32bit for now. You can install DMD 1.072 and Tango using DVM:

I've written a porting guide here:
