Why? It's complicated. (Read the message below.) When? Never unless we persuade Charles to change his mind. From http://groups.yahoo.com/group/dide/message/386: My hosting company wanted me to renew my hosting plan and I don't have the money for it at the moment. Plus it still had some install problems, and I was planning on changing so many things that a re-write made more sense. Im going on vacation for a while also. Ive got my local box setup for linux finnaly, maybe i can setup a slackware package for LEDS :P. Charlie Also, he's mentioned that his new IDE-type project is going to be called "Elephant". If you want to ask Charles to keep DIDE on life-support for a while, it probably be best to do that at the DIDE group (http://groups.yahoo.com/group/dide). jcc7

So he just gave up?! Why not give the souce to an eager community instead of completely leaving the project?

Source? take leds. it's written in D. There is a version that runs on windows (pre-alpha. Still need to compile Scintilla GTK+ mode in windows) I use exclusivly leds for all my D projects - linux version. better yet. take the CVS for dool,DUI and leds (these version were never even downloaded to windows) and let's colaborate. Ant (the creator of leds) http://sourceforge.net/projects/dool http://sourceforge.net/projects/dui http://sourceforge.net/projects/leds

Speaking of dool: what's up with that? There's nothing on the project page to download yet. What kind of things do you want in the library?

check here: http://sourceforge.net/forum/forum.php?thread_id=1121037&forum_id=394961 CVS is up and up-to-date see intructions on how to download: http://sourceforge.net/cvs/?group_id=115554 or browse it: http://cvs.sourceforge.net/viewcvs.py/dool/ It contains the bare minimum to allow DMD to compile leds without problems. 3 basic goals: - 100% OO runtime lib - open (- allow DUI and leds to compile) Ant
