Anyone ever used it in D or done a D binding? I'm in need of a binding.

There you go.

Running dstep and deleting the useless macros was enough.

Thanks, Stefan, never took a close look at step. Looks like a pretty nice translation tool.
 What do you think about doing a Conf session on the steps to take an average C code and turn it into D using DStep?

Dstep translates the headers. Not the implementation.
My Conference talk is about template overhead, therefore I won't go into dstep.

I have used https://github.com/FFY00/hidapi-d once. It worked but it was a long time ago. I clearly remember that the only problem I had encountered was with the obscure proprietary API of the hardware, not the library.
