If I may be so bold as to publicize my quirky work here... I just created the next version of my compiler and library collection snapshot. Version 0.3.0 changes nothing, except it has the Digital Mars D compiler version 1.027. I have recompiled all the libraries using it. You may download it here: http://www.fsdev.net/node/18 I made a great number of site tweaks. I basically stripped out every module from Drupal that I don't use, as well as a few that I do. It should let you download without obstruction now. I tried to reflect all of your suggestions in this release to make it the best possible. As usual, I'm open to any suggestions you may have. In the spirit of helping those new to D get going, I tested the installation process (using version 0.2.1) on a friend of mine who isn't a programmer. He got hung up on the Path thing. So I wrote http://www.fsdev.net/node/16 which should help newbies a great deal. I plan to write a node which will document how to build software with DSSS, and how to install additional libraries from the Internet using DSSS. Happy coding!

I could enable a module to change that, however, that would incur more memory use and would increase the number of errors and disconnects. Until I can get the memory use changed I have to play it careful. The alternative is that I have to write the whole site by hand. I'm not good with PHP, and I'm even worse at HTML and I really really stink at CSS. It's just safer if I stay away from those. I'm good at languages like D and Java though, so I'm not all bad.

I finally discovered through a combination of threads in the Drupal forums and a few sentences on the DreamHost Support wiki that it's related to memory usage. I'm considering enabling the path module, though for links I would think it better to use the node id, since those are more permenent. I'll have to go look and see. If it spikes up the memory usage I'll have to take it off though. It's a nasty balancing act, I assure you.Bill Baxter Wrote:I use Drupal all the time.

Your site is quite small so I don't think it will be a problem worth worrying about. But anyway, this is way off topic, so I'll drop it.
