You know what? at first I was like "pfft" but then I realised . . . I use code completion because i'm lazy. and If i can't look at your docs and figure out what the widget/function/class is supposed to do, so that I can use it in my editor that only really does completion, then yeah you're right.

Currently, LDC master is on 2.073.2 (the latest DMD release), with a 2.072.2-based release imminent, and work towards 2.074.0 (currently in beta) already underway. GDC is sadly a different story, though, and the situation hasn't always been as nice for LDC either, of course.

Here's an (shameless plug) [exception](http://loup-vaillant.fr/projects/monocypher/). There's also the Lua reference implementation. The intersection between C and C++ is still useful enough that C/C++ *can* mean something in some narrow contexts.

I don't write docs for other people, I write it for me to keep track of me. If someone else sees it and it helps them, great . . . ...but just like driving in traffic, standing in line at the bank, or achieving orgasm, I do it for me, not other people.
