I have completed developing Lexer for D. I did it on Linux/GTK. I am not sure if I should also rebuild on Win/Mac/wxWidgets. I thought I saw a statement somewhere that this was not necessary for submission. If that's the case, I will do some more testing and will prepare a submission shortly. A few questions:

A. I could try to rebuild on Win but I have Visual Studio 2005 which is significantly different from VC++ 6.0 and typically causes a lot of tweaks to the code base to make it work. Should I try doing it? (I would say no, since VS 2005 is probably a mini project in itself and should not be tied to lexers).

B. What is the procedure for submission and what is the format. Is it just a tarball with all modified files? Where do I send it?

C. I made a few modifications to the scintilla core code in order to support nested comments. I am assuming these should be surrounded with #ifdef SCI_LEXER, correct?

D. I also modified SciTE to support D. It serves as a reference for using LexD with other editors based on scintilla. It would be submitted along with scintilla. Is that OK?

I found the below in the archives Dec 2005. Whatever happened to the lexer
for D?  I don't see it in the releases.

  There was no update submitted. I expect the original is still
available so could be improved for inclusion.
