    I was subscribed to an actual paper magazine called Dr Dobb’s Journal. I think it was there that a language called D was being described as it was being developed. Is this D the continuation of that one? (I suppose it’s possible that it was Byte magazine, not DDJ.)

      It was definitely DDJ… back in the early 90s, right? I once asked Walter Bright (creator of D) if they were related and he told me it was just a naming coincidence.
