Here's GDC/GDB, running under Xcode:
http://www.algonet.se/~afb/d/xcode/

It works OK from the Terminal too... :-)
And SDL* and OpenGL are also working.

* = as long as you use a proper SDL_main:
    extern(C)
    int SDL_main(int argc, char **argv);
    and call the main from libSDLmain.a

Good job!

Noooo --- I was using that as an excuse to not get a mac! With the new sexy minimacs, my only two excuses were:

1) It's not payday yet
2) SDL and D aren't on there

Now you've gone and removed a reason :( I'm gonna have to spend money soon :P

I'm sure you can come up with another reason to avoid it. ;-)
Such as "there are no games, or even less than on Linux"...

Of course, there's http://www.apple.com/games/ and
http://guide.apple.com/uscategories/games_us.lasso

Then again, the 32MB ATI Radeon 9200 doesn't exactly make
it a gaming station. But should be pretty neat for Quartz ?

Games weren't my problem, thats what the monster xp box is for :) Writing games is much more fun than playing them, IMO :)

Yea, from what I've read, Panther should run pretty nicely on those boxes once the ram is bumped up a bit.

That was my reason :)...not that I really ever play games that I can't get by typing "emerge gamename"...usually :)

I've already got two computers, so I hardly think I could justify to my wife (or to myself, for that matter) spending the money for a new one, when I am already planning on spending a fraction of the amount of money to upgrade my current computer to be a badass AMD64 that will outperform the minimac.

Anyway, I don't have the unreasonable distaste for Macs that I used to, anymore it's just practical reasoning that keeps me from getting one.
