RemedyBG as a windows D debugger

I have been coding some simple examples in D to get the hang of 
the language although it's really similar to C. I on one of the 
sites recommended that 
[remedyBG](https://remedybg.itch.io/remedybg) could be used as a 
paid debugger and I've used it before for a C++ program. Nobody 
on this forum seems to have mentioned it yet as a D debugger.

Suprisingly it works quite well, it works on both with dmd and 
ldc2 compilers. The dissasembly shows up and things in the watch 
window mostly work. Structs and classes work with basic types but 
I could not get tuples to show up in the watch window.

RemedyBG just worked right out of the box, I was trying to get 
gdb to work with either of the compilers and I just couldn't get 
it to find the symbols.

If you are on Windows 10 or 11 I would recommend remedyBG for 
debugging D, in my estimation it is well worth the price 
especially if you also want to test C/C++ files in the future.
