I think it is probably best to have the OpenBSD port be a faithful match to 5.3.1. This isn't a major bug and hopefully you'll just get the fix in 5.3.2 or whatever the next version is called in 2-3 months. Does that sound ok to you? Robby On Mon, Nov 19, 2012 at 12:13 PM, Juan Francisco Cantero

Oh, I see. If you really need the lists of files to be the same, it is probably best to make both versions have the files (altho don't different architectures have different sets of files in general?). Probably you'll be breaking the distro if you remove files. Robby On Monday, November 19, 201

We use test in PLAI, and I suggested it in that context (eg, unification, where you don't care about the gensym'ed names of logic variables), which is probably why it got called that. On Mon, Nov 19, 2012 at 8:01 PM, Robby Findler wrote: > Yeah, that is very nice! (It should begin with "check" no

I think you should just stick "(except @racket[check-], since its first/second argument is a match pattern)" or something like that into the docs in your pull request. Also test cases: I think there is a test suite for rackunit somewhere; let me know if you have trouble with it and I can add tests

Predicates in general would be really awesome. I think the testing infrastructure for Sperber's book (DMDA) has something like this. Making it lightweight is what matters most, whether through a new match form or a more general predicate form. Shriram On Mon, Nov 19, 2012 at 8:25 PM, David Van

Gotcha. match-pred can be a separate thing. check-match can also let you use the identifiers bound in the match with an optional third argument, which relies on more than match-pred anyway. That's what I'm doing. On Mon, Nov 19, 2012 at 9:30 PM, Robby Findler wrote: > I think it is better to
