I was using Kate up until about a week ago.  I switched over to emacs... Takes bit to learn, but with the D syntax highlighting script (I think this is one of Ben's things, but please forgive me if I'm wrong) I much prefer it over kate.

Try scons... I love it and it's got built in D support.

Why hasn't anyone written a D name demangler for gdb yet? (Or am I wrong?)  It doesn't seem like a particularly difficult task to me.

1) Platform
WinXP

2) Editor
ConText

3) Build system
a bat file in each "project" directory, which simply defines some
parameters, and calls a main compile bat file in the base projects
directory.  no make or anything as i don't have any projects big enough to
worry about that.

4) Debugger
i'm perfect, what can i say, my code never has bugs.  ;)  i can get by
without one.

5) Profiler
i'm not THAT much of a nerd!

6) Others
i'd really, really, REALLY like to see a standard, useful D IDE soon.  very
soon.  it really sucks that DIDE just .. stopped, and we haven't heard
anything about its supposed successor, Elephant.  there's LEDS, but that's
in beta and it's linux-only (unless you want the nonfunctional windows
version).  i'd rather not go through the trouble of using visual studio
either.

James Dunne wrote a demangler, which seems to be working OK...

The only downside is that 1) it does printf 2) not GDB integrated
http://svn.dsource.org/svn/projects/bindings/trunk/demangle.d

If anyone could plug this in to gdb/gprof, that would be excellent!

But my Kate come from the installation CD with already D syntax highlighting
which i would never have expected. When I discovered it, I could enjoy
having the code I'm working on, the console and the list of files in a
single screen:)
By the way It's Kate 2.2.1 with KDE 3.2.3.

I've downloaded this for it was required by a certain program, but never
looked at it.
Mainly because my usual compile line is "dmd file.d file2.d `something`":)
But if it's really simpler than Makefiles, which I cannot look at without
feeling sick, I will like it:;)

Byez!

1) Platform:  Mac OS X 10.2.8, I also have Linux and WinXP but I rarely boot those up anymore. Maybe someday I'll get a switch box for them.

2) Editor:  nedit mostly, but sometimes 'mi' or Project Builder

3) Build system:  GNU make mostly, else Project Builder

4) Debugger:  gdb for stack trace, brain for figuring out why.

5) Profiler:  I mostly just eyeball it. ;-)

6) Others: oh, you know, the usual arsenal of UNIX and GNU tools. I wouldn't know what to do if I didn't have an xterm or three open. I also use Source Navigator a LOT for browsing sources, but that's not D related.

:-)

1: Linux, often also win98, w2000.
2: Mostly vim (both Win & Lin). For trivial tasks also Notepad.
3: Mostly command line, more seriously custom scripts.
4: None. They're fancy, but I'm used to variable printing and asserts.
5: I'm too old to be busy.
6: Standard *nix (and Cygwin) text tools, like grep and the like.

And I'd slauter a lamb in your name!

1) Windows
2) Visual SlickEdit
3) make
4) none for now.
5) none

With visual slickedit you can select a debugger to use or use the embedded
gdb debugger with a Visual Studio interface. Is there any way dmd can
generate debug info that can be used by gdb.
It can be used as GNU C/C++ editor and debugger.
