This is a bugfix release for Tango 0.95 beta 1, and fixes a few bugs related to *nix install scripts. Changes to code is deferred to the 0.96 beta 2 release. Only source distributions are updated.

Tango is a D library that provides a runtime for the D programming language, plus many additional library features for the D programmer. Further growth and sharpening of quality is expected for coming releases.

A feature list can be found on

http://www.dsource.org/projects/tango/wiki/Features

Extensive work has been put into documenting the basic features, and in trying to make usage and installation easy for as many as possible. Platform support will be provided with the help of the users. Win32, Posix x86 and PPC have currently received most testing.

Tango is not yet fully polished, but the last few weeks have seen efforts to solve toolchain problems, cleaning operations, documentation production, an improved website and more. Hopefully you will find it a useful addition to the D world, and feedback will gladly be accepted.

The Tango homepage can be found at

Does this mean it's not useful to upgrade if it already works for you?

What exactly do you mean? Does the script fail for you?

Yes. I got a syntax error.
But after I applied the patch, installation was successful.

./install-dmd.sh: line 302: syntax error near unexpected token `fi' ./install-dmd.sh: line 302: `   fi'

Ooh, sorry and thanks - I did not encounter that error myself while testing. :)

I got this message.

Then I tried to compile example/**/*.d, but got errors. What's wrong?

Others have been encountering this bug, too, today.. don't know what's wrong, though. Is the file tango/core/Exception.di existent?
