D plugin: NG:D/18602 by Andy Friesen, 26 Oct 2003
* Plugin (source included): DsourceProject:ddt (used to be called "eclipseD"?)
* Apparently, the <n>EclipseD?</n> plugin is evolving into DDT (see EditorSupport/DDTForEclipse).

: [[code]... Nothing earth shattering, just an editor that mostly highlights code
right. (egads) There's some issues with highlighting numbers, due to
the way the scanner classes work, but it's quite usable regardless.

Comments welcome, contributions moreso.

: [[code]2004.5.30 - Demmegod is working on expanding the plugin at dsource.org. I believe the number highlighting
is done, and there is some preliminary work on the Outline function, like in JDT.]
Descent and DDT are by far the more feature-rich IDEs. Descent is more featured than DDT, but it doesn't properly support D2, whereas DDT has better support for it. As of 2010-11 DDT is the only actively developed IDE.

Eclipse is an extensible IDE framework, mostly known for JDT, the high quality Java IDE.
