What's missing from Lubeck that you would like to see?
I don't have an issue with missing functions at this point.
I just hope that we can get some operator overloading so that I
don't have to write mtimes all over the place. My ideal would be
a DIP that adds the option to overload opBinary for \, .+, .-,
.*, ./. Lubeck could use \ for inverse, .+ etc. for element-wise
matrix operations, and * for mtimes, etc. Very Matlab-like.
Wrt Anaconda for D - it's the native code (C) libraries that
are the biggest pain point. Same thing as with Python really.
Wrt to my post above, I had forgotten that I made the point about
anaconda already. Long weekend away.
So I wonder if we could figure out a way to host build
configuration and build itself for the C libraries underlying
dub bindings and wrappers. It's really a Windows-specific
problem, because even today there doesn't seem to be a great
answer. I played with chocolatey a bit, but it doesn't always
seem to be that helpful in practice.
Sounds like something to think about.
