Two days later and I still cant get a 'Hello World' to compile.
It is far beyond me how a project can exist for so many years
and still not have a straightforward installation that works out
of the box. Yes.. read the forums and search google for
solutions
that may or may not work depending on the phases of the moon,
I have to ask you:
Why bother ?
Why would anybody trust a compiler written by people
who regard making it run out of the box an after-thought ?
What error are you getting? dmd easier to install as tcc
compiler. I used to download a .zip file but now I use the setup
in .exe format so it install everything for me 1-click only. It
ask me to install dmd/dmc/visual D and so on. I select what I
need to and then it's done. After downloaed I just path the dmd's
path in my Windows' PATH variable to use it from command line or
an IDE invoke dmd command and run successfully.
It's on Windows. Other than Windows such as Linux isn't such a
hard.
