Thanks z_axis - this is really useful for learning D (especially for a D newbie)
I have been playing with it for a while and it really helps to have all the examples pre-coded & ready to go. Also the associated texts help in understanding each example. Excellent job!
Thanks for taking the time to produce this and make it available.

I don't know why this is slipping through the cracks! It's a great idea with a ton of potential, and I could definitely see having it open while coding, particularly if it (in the future) allows adding in new help files.

Some things I think you could do now would be to make it so that you can get back to the source code after running it without having to switch to a new page, saving the source code/parameters/options (with an option to reset to the original) both when you change the page and when you restart the program, and fixing it so that when you make the documentation pane very large it doesn't hide the Run button.

It would also be great to have an index - it's sometimes hard to figure out where something's defined in the specification. That's really Walter's job, though. :)

It might be because the link is nothing more than a binary download point.

I clicked on the link but when it stated a file dowloading I cancelled it.

I'm reluctant to just run something off a link without first knowning what it is I'm about to run.
