Can someone please post the list of D keywords.  I'd like to add syntax highlighting to the best text editor ever, EmEditor 4.03 (http://www.emeditor.com).  Not only that it has a ton of features, it is also extremely fast, it takes a few milliseconds to load.

What about a little bit of activism on your side? http://www.digitalmars.com/d/lex.html

So long.

http://www.digitalmars.com/d/lex.html

Really, I think you have been hit enough - both sides should understand your .net/C# bias is intense, but you are spending time here - you really should [have] read the online manual.

Thanks for the link.  I have read the manual by jumping from part to part and missed the lex part.  I am biased to .net since I think that it is a great technology and wish that MS would stop being M$ and release it on many platforms. .NET is what the JAVA should have been and it is not a crime to wish some of the C# features to be in D, and some of the .NET dll features to be in  D dlls.  Even if I can't explain them as good as some people want me to, I believe that you people should have a look on the net at this features. That way you might understand them better and you might change your minds.
I like some of D and believe me that I wouldn't waste time in creating a syntax highlighting file if I didn't like it for that cool EmEditor.

I'll give you one thing, you've got guts.  You've been fighting an uphill battle and keep rolling down but getting up again, that takes some real tolerance ;)

Many of the guys in this group have used C# and some are quite experienced in it.  D has adopted a few ideas from net.

IMHO
You have to remember that Walter (excellent programmer as he is) cannot compete against the possibly hundreds of programmers that work in net.  Therefore Walter must focus on the most important parts of the language design.  That is one reason why many people in this group try to advocate a library solution, particularly if it is something already in D but parhaps not as *nice* as some would like it.    Of course what's important to one person isn't to another.  

I think the major things that will be changed in the language (now) will be from real problems users have with D.  But there's always D 2.0.

I say keep the suggestions coming, just don't bring them up again to often.

SpookyET I think  we need an interface to interact with .NET ( not DLL type which just have like Java packages )

Remember you must write that in C#:
using System;
and compare with Java ( even J#)
import System.*;
and D
import System;

I don't see anything differ . Even in C# you must add a reference in VS.NET
IDE to System.dll ;) but when in D and Java the compiler look after that
itself. Why must use import "System.dll". ???
The DLL type of .NET require a proxy usually other programs need to contact
with .NET Framework , or .NET contact to other normal - DLL , not only that
DLL type ( I really don't know why M$ named their .NET packages in DLL ) .I
think it called Interop or something . So the one you suggest is the ability
which support .NET Framework and so imho , Java packages . Extra for D ;) .
Not for the core .
Why must create a DLL which just use in .NET Framework ?? And why do that
when you can write an Interop wrapper on D DLL and access them just like
your normal way in C# ?
BTW, can Java access D DLL through JNI ? I read in some thread that Walter
has solved problems about garbage collection for D DLL.

using isn't importing, it is a shortcut mechanism so instead of typing Namespace.SubNameSpace.MyObject, you just type MyObject.
eg: System.Console.WriteLine();
using System;
Console.WriteLine();

You can also use "using" for aliases
using Output = System.Console;
Output.WriteLine();


This is what visual studio does.
csc.exe foobar.cs /resources:System.dll

dll are not not like java packgages, they are strong named assemblies (libraries)
Native apps can anly talk to .NET using COM.
.NET apps can access native apps using COM, access C dll, and normal C++ classes using managed C++.
By the way java is a piece of junk, it has always been

Using is in C++ so I wouldn't refer to it as a net thing.  In D module namespaces are automatic unless there is a clash, what could be more simple then typing nothing?

Having said that I've found that in some cases (ie when updating dig) you need the full namespaces. In these cases I would suggest an extension to *with*.  That is *with* accepts namespaces, can be written (optionally) without the block syntax and can be used at module level.

We have alias and typedef, why have another yet term?
