Is it hard to make condition
map to cond
and construct
map to cons
?

@me1 (define-syntax condition (make-rename-transformer #’cond))

voila!

Does anyone know how to (in emacs) with emacs-mode
(maybe this comes from paredit
or smartparens
) highlight the current parenthesized region?

@greg ^?

@pocmatos I haven’t tried this recently but https://melpa.org/#/highlight-parentheses

@greg awesome!

thanks

rainbow-delimiters-mode
is also good choice. )

By the way, are there similar plugins for DrRacket?

The nearest feature I can think of in DrRacket is to go to “Preferences > Colors > Background > Parenthesis color scheme” and select “Shades of grey”.

But it’s not rainbowy enough :disappointed:

@jerome.martin.dev it’s well enough! ) I’ve chosen the winter color scheme.

It would be great to have something like this https://ericscrivner.me/wp-content/uploads/2015/06/rainbow-delimiters.png I already have it in Emacs, the mode was mentioned above.

raco test -c tests/web-server
> “raco test: collection not found” How am I supposed to run tests when I modify a raco package? I already ran raco pkg update --no-setup --catalog <https://pkgs.racket-lang.org> web-server
and raco pkg update --clone web-server
.

@jeapostrophe How do I test the web-server
package? I’m lost between the contribution tutorial, the files “all-web-server-tests.rkt” and “run-all-tests.rkt”… raco update --clone
and all that fuss.

@dmitryhertz i find rainbow delimiters quite distracting, at least with my theme — zenburn.

I use solarized-dark


@jerome.martin.dev I do raco test -c tests/web-server
— Is it possible that you don’t have web-server-test
installed?

@jeapostrophe Yes, I had to run raco install
inside the web-server-test
folder to make it work :slightly_smiling_face:

@stamourv @ben Okay, comparing start up times of today vs yesterday, yesterday was demonstrably slower.

is there any way to set the easter egg DrRacket uses at startup?

(Other than just setting the local date, which would probably work.)

it seemed to me that this particular easter egg was animated, and maybe it just played the whole animation before continuing?

@blerner That is a possibility.

I remember @mbutterick’s spinning racket logo on weekends caused a similar slowdown. :confused:

maybe you can add a command line fiag, --no-holidays

That would be great. But the easter eggs are…err…well hidden.

@mflatt or @robby Do either of you remember where they’re hidden?
