I don't quite understand what "Tree Time" in the log means.

1) Win 2k
2) Crimson Editor
3) SMAKE ( from DMC++ CD )
4) writefln, my brain
5) none

I really wish AnyEdit had D support, it looks really nice! (http://www.anyedit.org/)

1) WinXP
2) Visual Studio 6 and Visual Studio .NET 2003
3) NMAKE, until I try that neat-o SCons you mentioned (It looks even nicer
than Ant!)
4) None yet
5) None yet
6) DCoder (http://dsource.org/projects/dcoder/) and a custom D Project
AppWizard (Once I get around to making it!)

Oh yea, and subversion w/ TortoiseSVN. Can't forget that! (Now that I've started using version control, I'll never go without it again!)

Ummmm .... -gt doesn't seem to be supported for Linux yet.

You can use GDC, and GNU profiler "gprof", instead:
(showing an example for the simple "sieve" program)

gprof has the same "problem" with the D name mangling
as gdb has too, that is: __D6dmain29true_mainFiPPaZi

--anders

PS. "gdb" is the GNU debugger, for those who didn't know.
    (gdb ./sieve, and then just issue the "help" command)

Time spent in the function plus all the functions it calls. Function time is the time spent just in that function, not in what it calls.

That's true. It shouldn't be hard to, I just haven't done the work yet.

Yeah, I'm hoping my contribution will be a good one. It'll be the first major contribution that I'll have made to..well, anything.

Well, I like the fast compiling time, I'm on a old computer and this helps in debugging

Byez!
