Please modify your documentation, because the following part of it is even offensive. At least from my viewpoint. Your page http://www.digitalmars.com/d/1.0/memory.html states that (my emphasis): "_Any_ non-trivial program needs to allocate and free memory." Have you ever heard of TeX? Is it a trivial program? Does it allocate memory dynamically? Dude, such kind of affirmation makes me jump out of my chair. Please, try reformulating, maybe by using "most" instead of "any". It would be really polite to do so. May I ask how could you possibly know about any non-trivial software? In fact, it couldn't be easier to find a widely used counterexample to your bold statement! And I am willing to bet that TeX and its variants are going to find more widespread usage than D for a long time, maybe even forever (see below). I actually wish D to eventually replace C++, a language that is already showing its age and evolves too slowly. Funny enough, TeX is even older, evolves even slower, but I do not see the need to move away from it. It is obviously the work of a genius, but I guess you knew it already since, if I got it straight, you've been considering LaTeX for your doc generation system (in which case TeX would be more used than D forever, since every user of D could be considered a TeX user!). Isn't it ironic? http://www.digitalmars.com/pnews/read.php?server=news.digitalmars.com&group=digitalmars.D&artnum=114728 Thank you for your time, Elias.
