A few more resources on writing a frontend (lexer, syntactic and 
semantic analizer).

http://thinkingeek.com/gcc-tiny/
Tells how to create a GCC frontend for a Pascal-like language, 
tiny. Can be useful since you can look how it applies to a real 
dfrontend in GDC.

Very clear tutorial on writing a Pascal interpreter in Python. 
Very beginner friendly, but not complete yet.

http://buildyourownlisp.com/contents
It is an online book that teaches C by writing an interpreter for 
a Lisp-like language, lispy. The code can be easely translated to 
D.

If you want you can also look at some haskell books. A simple 
parser is one of the standard projects used to teach haskell.
