Just updated Atom editor and noticed D files read as plain .txt 
and no D bindings in list of programs. Maybe someone should bring 
that to Atom's devs attention.

Interesting, since my main editor, KDE's Kate, does have D file 
syntax highlighting.

Based on State of d 2018 survey most popular editors are:

1. Visual Studio Code  25%
2. vim/neovim          18%
3. other               13%
4. sublime             13%
5. emacs               11%
6. Visual Studio + VisualD 10%
7. intellij             4%
8. Atom                 2%

Based on this data and personal experiance i would choose Visual 
Studio Code or vim for your D projects.

Kate also has a plugin for D called Lumen. I don't use it anymore 
though since I prefer VSCode.

In case you still prefer using Atom over another editor, I am 
maintaining a D package, ide-dlang [1], that uses atom-ide [2] to 
introduce a few niceties beyond syntax highlighting.
