And the most important bit of information: I use vi (Vim).
I think that the type of application where D is proving itself
right now is high performance server applications, and
particularly web servers. D seems completely fit to replace
Java on most server apps, with both better performance and
better memory usage.
The web interface to the newsgroups, as well as the recently
revealed vibe.d web server seem to support this view.
D can handle both batch and real time treatments really well I
think. That is where it can gain a lot of weight in the
enterprise, even before games and scientific applications.
The other thing that would make it attractive among the C++
developers, would be the development of a lightweight, high
performance, minimal library that doesn't use the GC at all.
Ideally, it would be compatible with Phobos. I bet if such a
library existed, flocks of C++ developers would suddenly switch
to D.
