Hi all. I have been trying (quite badly) to get started with D for a while. On my first attempt I gave up before even compiling Hello World, because it was too difficult to find out how to even compile a program in Windows. (I know.. I said I was bad at this..) Second time around I tried harder, and wrote a Windows batch file to make compiling and running my code easier. No messing around with PATH variables or things like that, too difficult. I have been playing around with this for a year or so now, and thought it might be useful to someone else trying to learn D. So here is a batch file that will automatically compile and run your D code. If you're interested: save http://wogone.com/code/D2.BAT.TXT to your computer, rename to D2.BAT, then run D2 from a command prompt for further instructions. Hope someone finds it useful, and not too buggy! Any comments or improvements are more than welcome.

DVM will handle this for you.I can't figure out where to get started with DVM, so will give that a miss.
simendsjo linked to the new URL, where no pre-compile binaries exist yet. Use this old URL until the next release: https://bitbucket.org/doob/dvm/wiki/Home 1. Download the tool: https://bitbucket.org/doob/dvm/downloads 2. run "dvm.exe install dvm" 3. open a new console window 4. run "dvm install 2.059" 5. run "dvm use 2.059" 6. now "dmd" and "rdmd" will be available You can also add the "-d" flag to the "use" command. This will set the compiler as the default compiler. Instructions are available at the URL above. -- /Jacob Carlborg

Thanks both for the suggestions. RDMD looks useful, but am I right thinking I can't run it from anywhere unless I'm able to mess with PATH variables? I can't figure out where to get started with DVM, so will give that a miss.

EditPad is as far as I go! I tried using Code::Blocks about a year ago, but couldn't get it to play nicely with the compiler...
