One of the things I eventually hope to get to, is to write D apps that
work on both Windows and Linux.  I'm pretty sure my code can already run
on Windows, but I just haven't setup the dev environment yet.

Whoa. That's a pretty cool idea: use D to build D!  I think I'm going to
start doing that too. Right now I'm using SCons (Python-based), which is
pretty great for what I need, but the thought of using D to build D
sounds so appealing to me that I'm gonna hafta do just that. :) Thanks
for the idea!
