compact-spaces? Why should all functions have a type prefix? How many functions could be possibly named normalize-spaces not dealing with strings? why should it take a regexp for the spaces, BTW? (compact-spaces "foobar was here!") should be self-evident without requiring the user to provide the common-sense regex everytime... the `#:trim keyword is a good idea... _________________________ Racket Developers list: http://lists.racket-lang.org/dev
