That's part of why I started it. I was getting all ready to write a parser and then figured out that I didn't need it. I was itching to write one and didn't have one to write. So, I started on the D lexer, and I've ended up spending time on it when I really should have been working on other projects (like the h.264 header editor that I've been working on in order to generate test cases for the C++ h.264 header parser that I maintain at work). I've had to put the lexer down for a few days, but I expect that I'll be back to it soon enough, and it's already quite far along. It's going surprisingly quickly. - Jonathan M Davis
