Which one do you use? I am using Linux and Emacs for editing other D source file. But the DDOC syntaxes and keywords are not well high-lighted.

There has been no work on handling DDOC comments specially in the Emacs D Mode as far as I know. There is some attempt to do things for Doxygen, but I am not sure how successful that is as I am not using it.

It is not clear to me that all D's comment mechanisms are handled as they should be. It should be possible, albeit non-trivial I suspect, to add support for all the comment forms and the DDOC macro markup.

The question does anyone have the energy to get stuck into the E-Lisp to achieve the goal – and write the tests to prove it?

Adding DDOC support for D Mode require some more work obviously. I will see if I can make some changes to that. For the time being, I would like to know which editors people are using. Or is it a plain black and white editor ?

Until IntelliJ IDEA and/or CLion works for D, Emacs is my only D editor.

Actually Emacs is my favorite editor. What's you setup to work with DDOCs?
