hmm…i see only ‘general’ channel :confused:

@testvarakumar has joined the channel

does anyone else get this is it just me?

7.8?

check your prefs.rktd file

or restart DrRacket

Tried eww
, but it requires JS unfortunately. Maybe I’ll dig in the internals to see if I can get a emacs renderable output.

removed org.racket-lang.prefs.rktd seemed to fix it. Edited some colour prefs (background colour transparency)

Have you pressed the "+" next to “channels”? it should show a list of channels that you can join

do you find racket-mode better than geiser?

Yes.

Have you seen the videos from Greg’s presentation of racket-mode from RacketCon?



Will check it out, thanks

Watch the second one first.

@mflatt I think you might have broken the -singleInstance flag when switching to CS for the default build.

Or at least DrRacket is opening a new instance every time I open a new file from my OS.

Yes, I can see how that could go wrong. Linux?

Yup, linux.

Using the provided .desktop file.

Albeit with this exec command: Exec=/home/leif/racket/racket/bin/drracket -singleInstance %F

I’ve pushed a repair.


will the end performance of racket CS be as fast as sbcl?

I just got bitten by this:


the black brackets mean the enclosed forms are optional, and not at all meaning what, for example, this might mean:

(let [(x 1)
(y 2)]
(+ x y))

It is really a good idea to have that distinction marked by the difference in COLOR of the brackets?

It’s not optimal maybe, but there aren’t too many things to learn about how to read the docs’ grammar. Once you get the hang of it, it’s very clear to read and precise.
