Now I’ve heard of a lot of programming languages, D wasn’t one of them and I feel a bit ignorant now. Here is what wikipedia has to say about D:
D is an object-oriented, imperative, multiparadigm system programming language by Walter Bright of Digital Mars. It originated as a re-engineering of C++, but even though it is predominantely influenced by that language, it is not a variant of C++. D has redesigned some C++ features and has been influenced by concepts used in other programming languages, such as Java, C# and Eiffel. Stable version v1.0 is expected some time in early January 2007.
And here is how it relates to the Nokia 770:
Woaaaa, Michal got D working on his Nokia 770. He told me the garbage collecting works too and that he’s now trying to get the gtk+ language bindings for D working.
Damn, that would be yet another language to support in tinymail. But definitely one that I would support. Because that language would be the one that I would use myself for writing applications.
