Thanks, Greg, that's helpful. By the way, I love racket-mode. DrRacket is a great environment, but I get frustrated editing text in anything but Emacs (or more recently Emacs with Evil via Spacemacs). Racket-mode provides enough support that I only switch into DrRacket when I've hit the wall with debugging.
It probably shows, but I'm just beginning to work with Racket proper and while the documentation is exhaustive, there's just so much to learn. I did two passes on Gregor Kiczales' Systematic Programming Design MOOC back when it was on Coursera -- once as a student, and once as a community TA. I've passed through most of Realm of Racket and am now just trying to use Racket for things that are actually useful to me, things I would normally just do through rough and raunchy adhoc shell scripting. I'm switching back and forth between the guide and the reference and grepping the codebase to find examples of in-the-wild usages. As a curiosity, I had my co-worker who doesn't code read over the original Python script I'd written, and this Racket script and he commented that he found the Racket version easier to follow. I agree. I've found it easy to get simple things done in Python, and that mostly without knowing what I'm doing. Doing the same things in Racket has required a little more effort to research how to solve the problem, but I'm happier with the end result and feel better about it, somehow.
