Thank you for your detailed answers. Now I do understand that 
working with D and arduino maybe be out of my capability. I may 
now decide to work on porting a parser generator library to 
phobos. I do know that pegged is a parser generator in D. Can 
this new project be easier? I am also quite interested in 
parsing, so that would be a very good experience for me.

Sorry for being such a newbie, I hope you understand my 
willingness to learn.
