'$ racket -l mzscheme -f main.scm' turns out to be just what I wanted. Thanks! But it's counterintuitive that this doesn't work: $ racket -f main.scm -l mzscheme main.scm:1:10: #%app: missing procedure expression; probably originally (), which is an illegal empty application in: (#%app) What's the right mental model for this? Is the -l causing future files on the commandline to be in the requested language? Are there online docs on the commandline flags online? racket --help says this about -l -l <path>, --lib <path> : Like -e '(require (lib "<path>"))' Is this right? >> Is there a way to switch the default language to mzscheme ... >> without getting into a module environment? > > * If you're talking about generating files, then you can just use > "#lang mzscheme" at the top to get the (very) old legacy language. > > * And if you're talking about editing in DrRacket, then the language > dialog has an "Automatic #lang line" that determines the line that > gets inserted into new buffers. #lang also turns each file into a module, and I have to make sure I require files in the right order. With generated code this is often non-trivial.
