I use monoD and it is by far the best IDE for D that I have 
tried, I have tried to mess with Visual D on 3 different 
occasions but I have never got it working properly and I didn't 
want to use eclipse either as it is kinda bloated. Its super 
simple as well, just get monoDevelop running and download the D 
plugin from the plugin manager, set your paths and your done.
