OK, two quick questions:

I know this has been discussed already, but at 10,300 messages and counting,
this group is getting hard to search! I know that some people created some
language definition files so D could be written in various editors, (with
pretty syntax highlighting.) could somebody please tell me where I could find
them? I would be happy using just about any editor. (save maybe vim) A link on
either digitalmars.com or opend.org would be a huge help.

My other question is, do objects in D automatically inherit from type Object
like java?

Thanks,
-Jon

I made mine in CREdit within a few minutes, the manual contains the list 
of kewords somewhere, and you also need to enter a couple of tiny 
things. It's easy you'll see.

Time to fix up a full IDE, I guess.

Yes (rtm!), and this "Object" can already do a number of kool things!
Take a look at object.d of phobos source.

BTW, D is very flexible. You can write it even in your mail editor:

/+
                       /''::;..
                      /       ':.
                     /   /-.    \\
                    /   //  :    |:
                   /   //  .:   //
                  /   //  .:   /'
                 /   /L.:'   :'
                /         _.''
               /____::===''
              '''''
+/

DEdit is an editor written in D available somewhere at www.opend.org

Argghh... me doing work wasn't supposed to be the answer! =)
In any case, I whipped up (well, modified) a D keyword file for the
Scintilla/SciTE editor, its a pretty nice editor if you guys haven't checked
it out (http://www.scintilla.org/SciTE.html). The keyword file is attached if
anybody wants it. You might want to edit the global properties of SciTE also
so the language support is available from the menu.

Although you are not interested in vim, there is a vim syntax file at
www.vim.org (in case you like to take an interest :-)
