FWIW, I came across the same issue when writing contracts related to IP address operations. To ensure that an input string represents a valid address, the contract needs to parse the string. The constructor for the address structure also needs to parse the string to get the data, so it's redundant. (I didn't come up with a nice solution though) Cheers, Asumu ____________________ Racket Users list: http://lists.racket-lang.org/users
