Today, I'm working on a private GUI tool which must be run at linux and windows. It's awful that I compile a little 64bit program(or -m32mscoff) in windows must have visual studio which has tremendous size installed even though I only need a linker. It's weird that a compiler compiles to binary targets needs another compiler or tools. Sigh.

There's no need to install VS if you don't use it otherwise, the windows platform SDK should suffice; it comes with the microsoft linker and all the lib files, and the DMD installer should detect it just fine.
