The thing is that a lot of people who use D don't mind the lack
of IDE support.
IDE is not just a nice interface to write code. It's a way to
organize files, AST based file browsing, github integration, and
- the most important aspect for me - is the *integrated debugging
support*. I'll never use dmd from command line and the lack of
IDE support would be definitely a stopper for me.
The same people not minding the lack of IDE support are usually
the Linux guys. Personally, I don't know any Windows developer
masochistic enough to use the command line when an IDE is
available for the task described above.
