 I have to agree with Rayne. I've tried UNA 1.1 on osx and the only thing

 worked. No "Live" Syntax Checking for D, 


 To get live syntax checking, you need to change the default compile tool (or
one of your own creation) to work "On Change", and the Tool Output to,
"Highlight Errors/Warnings ONLY".
 
 no syntax highlighting, 


 Now UNA has the best D syntax highlighting there is. It recognizes all
literals and variables in strings, among other things. What was the extension
of the file you were editing? Currently we use 'd' to identify D source code
files.
 
 no code/autocompletion. And when I wanted to change the file encoding to 
 UTF-8 (I assume it has support for it) I couldn't because the "pop up 
 menu" was to tall to fit on the screen, it didn't shrink and added 
 scrolls arrows as it should on osx.


 Sounds like a problem with Swing. What's your default resolution?
 
 BTW add default configurations for GDC and DSSS also.


 Thanks, I'll add it to the todo for the next micro release.

No offense this program has very good potential, just tone it down a bit man,
your so focused on features your ruining this things user-friendlyness, I mean
I can't even figure out where the output of the compiled program is, nor can I
figure out how to change where it goes, I mean I may just be an idiot but I've
never had this many problems with an IDE before.

I agree. After 3 minutes of playing around, I STILL couldn't work out 
how to create a "hello world" program. At that point I gave up and 
uninstalled. This program is by far the most user-hostile IDE I've ever 
seen. You really need to improve that.
