I'm currently updating the TextMate D bundle for D2. I have a couple of questions for how to highlighting some specific code or how other editors/IDE's highlight them.

* "this" in constructor

this () {}

Keyword (function should be fine, vim doesn't highlight those)

In TextMate functions/methods are highlighted, should this be highlighted as a keyword or as a method?

* "this" in copy constructor

this (this) {}

Keyword

The "this" parameter, should that be highlighted as a keyword or as a parameter?

* The "__ctfe" variable

if (__ctfe) {}

How should this highlighted? I see a couple of alternatives:

- not at all
- as a keyword
- as a special recognized built-in symbol, similar to __LINE__
- as a special recognized library symbol. For example, in the C bundle many of functions in the standard library are specially recognized and highlighted differently. This might not apply here since it's not a library symbol

Statement [e.g. debug, return, function, with] (that needs fixed)

Probably should be Identifier for consistency [e.g. _arugments, __vptr, _ctor]

Which I guess is your third (special recognized built-in), though __LINE__ is a constant in Vim's highlighting [e.g. null, __VERSION__].

* __traits identifiers

__traits(allMembers, Foo);

In this case "allMembers". Basically the same question and alternatives as for the "__ctfe" variable.

Identifier

* Predefined version identifiers

version (OSX) {}

Again, same a question and alternatives as for the "__ctfe" variable.

Identifier

* Extern identifiers

extern (C)

Again, same a question and alternatives as for the "__ctfe" variable.

Identifier
