You can find it here: http://dsfml.com/
DSFML technically is not a binding (even though it says such on
the web site). It's a wrapper that D-ifies the SFML API. The
SFML functions are not callable directly, as they are all
declared privately. DerelictSFML is strictly a binding, with no
attempt to wrap anything. A wrapper like DSFML could be
implemented on top of DerelictSFML.
So yes, it's better if what you really want is a wrapper.
Ah yes, I think you explain the difference between
wrapper/binding in one of the Derelict docs.
I'm currently working through a ebook on Game Dev with SFML...the
examples are all C++.
I don't have any trouble translating it to the equivalent C
bindings (so far anyway), but perhaps in the long run using dsfml
will be easier (for example, I found using Iup4d easier than the
straight C Iup bindings).
