Fear me. I combined Walter's code with my own to form some kind 
of Voltron!

I think the compiler's error design could use a complete 
overhaul. I'm wondering if it wouldn't be wise to start a new git 
branch for all changes to error messages. Call it 
`stderr.experimental` or something cute like that. The idea is 
that D won't break people's test code that checks error output 
until a more complete design has been worked out and approved of. 
I'm not in favor of or against this idea. I just wanted to 
propose it.

First Alexa D Skill is live

2017-05-18 Thread Fabian Wallentowitz via Digitalmars-d-announce

Hey guys,

Stephan (extrawurst) and me (fabsi88) have published the first 
Amazon Echo Alexa Skill based on D. It's called Enigma2 control 
and can be used for controlling your enigma based linux receiver 
via openwebif plugin.


For further information see skill store (german only right now):
https://www.amazon.de/dp/B01N4W07S4/ref=sr_1_1?s=digital-skills&ie=UTF8&qid=1495124694

and our developer page at github:

The header says it's for the lightning talk on excel add-ins, 
but the link goes to Walter's talk.


For me the link goes to the lightning talk, but Reddit displays 
inline Walter's talk.  Strange.


Well Walter's is the first in the playlist. Must be a reddit bug.
