Just one new feature (unicode identifiers!), but a lot of bug fixes. Not all bugs got fixed, I haven't forgotten about the others.

I don't have a good way to test out the unicode identifiers, anyone using a Japanese unicode text editor or similar want to give it a try? D is a modern language, and so really ought to support unicode well.

Coolness, can you update the changelog ?

Thanks,
C

I downloaded the .zip to view the changelog (since the website hasn't been updated yet) and noticed...
    * Added D.win32.registry.

What happened to . . .
"By convention, package and module names are all lower case. This is because those names have a one-to-one correspondence with the operating system's directory and file names, and many file systems are not case sensitive. All lower case package and module names will minimize problems moving projects between dissimilar file systems."

"d.win32.registry" would be a lot easier on my eyes.

Great!
However, how could this be used?

extern(C) int año() { ... } //return the year

What happened was that I'd prefer just 'd', but it wound up causing problems because 'd' was commonly used as a local variable name. 'D' is rarely used, so seemed to make better sense.

Compromises everywhere, sigh <g>.

Actually, C99 does support unicode identifier chars, although with the \unnnn and \UNNNNNNNN syntax. But I know of no C compiler that implements it, so it's moot.

The updated one is in the download, I'll upload the updated one.

I tried the unicode identifiers as UTF-8.
It succeed.

But Japanease in string literals have to be SHIFT-JIS(Multi-Byte Encoding)
for "printf" and "stdout.writeLine".
It's troubled as a result.
C and D runtime were not created to use unicode.

------------------------
alias printf $BI=<((B;

int main()
{
 $BI=<((B("$B$3$s$K$A$O(B\n");
 return 0;
}

That is a problem, I'm not sure what to do about it. One thing I have been looking for is a mapping from Shift-JIS to unicode. Do you have such a table?
