It seems that Google has refreshed its index in the last few minutes. Maybe Google's dancing as we speak.  I get

"written in D" : 725 hits
"written in Brainfuck" : 599 hits

But at least

"written in INTERCAL" : 92 hits

Not bad for an incomplete language :-)

These *could* be translated to D, with
varying amounts of the work involved...

For instance, wxD uses both C# and C++.
(translated into D / compiled as a lib)

> "written in C" : 1,560,000 hits

And all these should be ready to go, as
soon as one translates the C headers...

At least the 32-bit and non-vector ones ?
(since D is not ready for 64-bit or SIMD)

Note that this is actually even less, since many speak of music or other topics: "Written in D major", "written in D minor", etc. This could, of course, also apply to C, but C gets over a million hits anyway.

What's strange is that Googling for '"written in D" -major -minor' generates
more results (955 hits).
