Phobos has a better design (Tango is too complicated in some places, has a lot of things I (and a regular programmer IMHO) don't use, and has bad design decisions sometimes - both internal and user API) I totally disagree:) Show me example of such bad decision. Tango often asks you a buffer (e.g. at tango.text.Unicode, tango.text.convert.Utf) that is not needed in a language with GC. But it isn't a main problem. Let's consider the cases: * if you don't provide a buffer it will manually allocate an array instead of using an Appender and than reallocate it etc. * the worst case, if you provide a large enough buffer, you are (I was) completely sure Tango will use it (you whant to do a manual memory management by some reason), *but* it will reallocate a new one from GC if it just don't like yours (if yourBuffer.length - minimalNeededLength tangoSacredAdditionLength, and addition length it often nonzero, so Tango will not like your exactly enough buffer).

So it takes your array buffer as a ref argument and resizes it / reallocates it if it's not big enough? I've never used Tango so I don't quite understand how it works. If I pass a static array or its slice of it, it can't do much except maybe throw an exception if it's not big enough. Hidden memory allocations are superbad!

At first, a thousands of errors arose but I could fix them by using druntime instead. We need to do similar for windows. So how far along is this project actually? Yes, Tango for D2 should make use of druntime and deimos. Deimos?? Isn't that dead? Probably he meant this: https://github.com/D-Programming-Language/deimos What other project were you referring to?

As a bit of trivia, Tango would probably have been named deimos if dsource/deimos hadn't existed.
Re: DMagick image processing with D.
I've started a new repo where I'll be writing some DMagick (win32) sample apps. I have a simple one now that loads an image to a DibSection and blits it to the screen: https://github.com/AndrejMitrovic/DMagickSamples Note that I've had to add a couple of fixes to the library, so I'm distributing it with the samples.

Otherwise I guess I could fetch the raw bytes of the image and display that via GDI/etc. I've seen a toBlob function in there somewhere, maybe I can use that. I've never used this lib before but it will definitely come in handy. Thanks for your hard work, Mike! If you get displaying with GDI working it might be worth adding it to DMagick, so that every windows user can display images easily. -- Mike Wey

Well it causes access violations on application start like I've mentioned in the bug report. Without the calls the violations are gone and I can use ImageMagick, for now nothing seems to be wrong when I don't call those init functions.

Heh :) The main problems I have with JS are: - When it's *required* for stuff that's perfectly feasable without it. - When there's so much JS that loading/using the page slows to a crawl. - When it breaks forward/backward and linking/bookmarking (like on GitHub, for instance). - Abusing JS for dumb/irritating things like pop-ups, pop-ins, excess animation (the rollout animation in cuteDoc is tastefully done though, I have no issues with that), etc. - The syntax/semantics/api/etc of the JS language itself. But I've never had a problem with a little bit of *optional* JS being used to streamline a few things here and there, a least for things that just can't be done without JS. Heck, even I use JS like that now and then. For example, the rollovers on this page: http://www.attentionworkout.com If JS is off (and this wasn't at all hard to do) it still works (You just have to click instead of rollover. It's possible to get *actual* rollovers with CSS alone, but in this specific case, I needed a rollover on one element to change a different element, and I couldn't figure out a CSS-only way to do that. If anyone knows if that's possible with CSS-only, I'd be glad to hear how. CSS is much better than JS for user-experience, but for a developer, sometimes CSS can be just as painful). And before anyone cringes: I didn't design that site, I only implemented it according to provided specs/mockups. And I *definitely* wouldn't normally have audio in a page, but this was intended to be usable by seniors in nursing homes. And I wouldn't normally use Flash to embed the audio, but the newer supposedly good browsers (like Chrome) completely crap out on audio embedded via normal, sensible means (ie, the object tag): Which always *used* to work just fine on everything until Google decided they owned the internet...Ok, now I'm ranting again, I'll stop... ;)
