Yes, and you've been a great help in pushing these things along!

Just doing my bit :) Since I started playing with D2 I've been using dmd, and the state of debugging wasn't any way near what I was used to... So I fixed it. I figured I may as well push for a couple of other debugging things to get sorted while my head was in debugging mode :) Of course having played with dmd I now find myself wanting to fix more issues ;)

As one who attempted to do quick surgical fixes and failed, I appreciate your efforts! I'm curious, how long did you spend researching before you could start making useful changes?

Every time I try peeking under the hood of dmd, I wish there was some kind of basic overview document. Even a few sentences at the top of a file indicating its purpose would be a great help. It's probably 10x better still if I stop acting so lazy and dedicate a few hours to getting a basic sense of what the code is doing!
