digitalmars.D - Yet another D editor

I wrote a D lexer for Scintilla.  It highlights D better than any editor 
I've tried yet.  It's even better than DCode/Entice, though the 
advantage is somewhat minor.  What it does:

* Recognizes all kinds of D numbers, including hex floats.
* Can recognize errors in many numeric literals.
* Supports all types of D2 strings, including hex strings, delimited 
strings with nesting delimiters, and heredoc strings.
* Recognizes escape sequences in strings, character literals and as 
stand-alone escape strings.
* Recognizes errors in strings like unsupported or incomplete escape 
sequences, invalid chars in hex strings, bad chars in heredoc string 
delimiters, or trailing chars after the end of a delimited string.
* Supports EOL, stream and nesting comments.
* Recognizes DDOC comments.
* Recognizes DDOC section names and macros.
* Recognizes macros lacking a closing bracket.
* Supports code folding.

Probably that's it.  The question is, what do I do with the code?  It's 
probably too small a project to open a page on DSource.  It doesn't use 
any 3rd-party libraries nor a D front-end.  Anybody needs it or wants it 
published?

send me your dsource username and I'll get you access to scrapple and you 
can add it there.

My username is 'SnakE'.  I've also sent you an e-mail earlier but it 
probably got lost.

Thank you.

Thank you very much.

Code is uploaded into:
http://dsource.org/projects/scrapple/browser/trunk/scilexer

There are sources, some instructions, and a DLL compiled for 
Scintilla/SciTE 1.76 for Windows.

Have fun.

WOW, that is already something.

IMO The D Lexer should become part of the official Scintilla distribution.
A DSource project makes sense. F.I. It would be nice to have your 
sourses in order to build a DLL. I am very interested to get your 
sources ASAP. :)
Thanks, Bjoern

D Lexer *is* a part of the official distribution.  However it's probably 
made out of C++ lexer and lacks support for so many features of D.

I'll put the project in scrapples as soon as I get the access.
