To Takeshi and Arjen:

I have now (git described as plplot-5.15.0-21-gf7d9bec36) pushed this
topic to the PLplot master branch at SourceForge.  This new D language
support (see README.release for details) works perfectly on Linux (all
comprehensive tests have passed perfectly on my Debian Buster
platform), and I hope Takeshi (who contributed part of the changes
that have gone into this push) would be willing to test this new D
language support for PLplot on the MacPorts platform and Arjen on the
MSYS2 platform.

@Takeshi: as MacPorts maintainer of the plplot package for that
distribution, this push cannot help you immediately with dmd because
the push only works for that compiler if you have first built an
extremely recent version of CMake, and it will take quite a while
until that recent version of CMake propagates officially to MacPorts.
But if you are still interested in testing for your future dmd
MacPorts benefit (or want to test gdc instead which should work with
the current official MacPorts version of CMake), then please follow
the directions in cmake/test_d/README (which include building an
extremely recent version of CMake to use for all testing) to generate a report 
tarball in
the two ways requested so I can analyze those results and adjust the
"Darwin" Platform files accordingly.

@Arjen: the only D compiler you have access to on Windows is
one you download for yourself [from Digital 
Mars](https://dlang.org/download.html).
I would appreciate you testing our new D language support on MSYS2 with that 
compiler.
As in Takeshi's case I suggest you start with the test_d project for
an extremely recent version of CMake from its git master branch
that you have built yourself.
