I've added Gamma setting for font rendering. Now text looks 
acceptable.
In DlangIDE v0.1.4, I'm using
         FontManager.fontGamma = 0.8;
	FontManager.hintingMode = HintingMode.AutoHint;
(as well, for Windows versions, USE_FREETYPE is set - but it 
falls back to win32 font rendering if no freetype.dll found)
As for me, now font rendering look good with such settings.
Latest features implemented:
* Text cursor blinking
* Update of actions state in UI (now working better for toolbars, 
has some bugs for menu items, will be fixed soon)

Now DlangIDE allows to open DUB project, edit it, build and run, 
clean, rebuild, upgrade dependencies (using DUB).

I hope it will become usable in a few weeks.
