Highlights unread comments. 2. Allows to navigate through unread comments with Ctrl + Up / Ctrl + Down. http://userscripts.org/scripts/show/179121

Unstandard, a general purpose library
*Unstandard* is a library for general purpose usage aimed to be an addition to the *D* standard runtime library *Phobos*. The author would like to pull as much functionality as possible to Phobos but it's a rather difficult and slow work. NOTE: It's a personal one-man library, not some experimental stuff for *Phobos*. There is nothing official in it. Project page: https://bitbucket.org/denis-sh/unstandard Documentation: http://denis-sh.bitbucket.org/unstandard/ Partial Unstandard brief content description --- * For string manipulation functions see unstd.c.string and unstd.utf. * For user-defined lifetime implementation see unstd.lifetime. * For various metaprogramming stuff see unstd.generictuple, unstd.templates, and unstd.traits. * For various GC and non-GC memory manipulation stuff see unstd.memory.allocation, unstd.memory.misc, unstd.memory.weakref, and unstd.windows.heap. * For functions to manipulate with multidimensional rectangular arrays see unstd.multidimarray. Also see for other useful stuff unstd.array, unstd.casts, unstd.math, and unstd.typecons. Read documentation for more information. P.S. --- The library is about one year old. It has been mentioned few times in digitalmars.D NG as phobos-additions library. The name was changed to prevent thinking it has a relation to the official library. -- Денис В. Шеломовский Denis V.

Aside from the FreeBSD case which is most likely a bug, is that an expected increase, or they are just compiled with some extra options for the beta, and will shrink again when the release comes?

Just to make it clear, I mean the difference between the 2.064 beta provided by Walter and 2.063.2 release.
