Hi Mirko,

I'm from the Java camp and am not familiar with Visual Studio. 
Those shells have no UI, do they? Those "ordinary application 
developers like me" always first ask for an IDE before they look 
at some language. Maybe I will never become a real D systems 
programmer ... ;-).

Thanks for your reply, but seriously: a D plugin for IDEA would 
give D a boost. I don't know with IntelliJ wold do that without 
asking for money, but I guess they wold be very helpful at least. 
IDEA also exists for Mac and Linux by the way.

Cheers, Oliver
