Here are two things that I do: (a) hack on the "live" collects (b) just rerun 'raco setup' on the relevant collections (it takes collection arguments on the command line) (c) use the -D argument to 'setup' to skip rebuilding the documentation (d) sometime, I don't rerun 'raco setup' at all, I just rely on running from source. This is slower to run, but avoid the setup time. Of course, you should run setup on the whole tree before requesting a pull or submitting a patch, but skipping the intermediate slowness helps a lot. -- sam th [email protected] _________________________________________________ For list-related administrative tasks: http://lists.racket-lang.org/listinfo/dev
