Oooo.. You should put that on dsource or somewhere. Hacking D sounds
like a lot more fun than hacking C++. I wouldn't mind helping out on
this one.
Wow, I am pretty sure I have already seen a D port of dmd on dsource. Was
there a good reason to start yet another port of it?
I know about DParser, but it's somewhat outdated, incomplete and doesn't
support code generation. It also diverged from DMD quite a lot so fixing
it would be quite hard (I, too, plan to make it more D-ish - get rid of
casts, replace void* "Array"s with type-safe equivalents etc - but not
until it is 100% ready).
I just believe rewriting it from scratch will be plain faster. I can also
test the code much easier - if it produces exact same binary then it works
correct.
