You just blew my mind! This is something that always bothers me when using go-to-definition, but I never thought there'd be such a simple solution.

In JDT you can use ALT-Left/Right or the arrow symbols in the toolbar.

The only IDE I know of that has this feature is NetBeans.

OK, _YOU_ just blew my mind! I learn something new about JDT every day! And it turns out Descent has this feature, too :-).

I think it's actually a part of Eclipse, not just JDT. I can navigate across different editors that way (not just java source files).

It should be able to do most of its features without the need to configure compiler paths, or what not. That's what I think is missing in the current IDE's for D.
Poseidon is going that way. (If all goes well)
I also wish more programs could update themselves with the latest build.
And maybe update the compiler as well.
There should be a project on dsource which would make handling stuff like that easier :)

Visual Studio has it too. Same Alt-left/Alt-right key binding as JDT.

seeing as dmd is free an small on win/Linux having an app that updates it's self using a source download/compile would not be to nasty even for non-programmer users.
