[racket] License question

I must admit that I have no idea how to interpret the legalese associated with different software licenses. Is it okay to port portions of Racket's math library to other languages? Thanks, Mark Racket Users list: http://lists.racket-lang.org/users

[racket] getting entire syntax object in define-syntax-class pattern clause

In "define-syntax-class", is there a way that the "#:attr" expression can get the syntax object that was matched by the syntax pattern? Reason: I'd like to use the syntax object in things like runtime errors and perhaps in non-error runtime debugging info. Neil V. Racke

Re: [racket] question on pluggable modules

There are several ways to do that. As Matthias, I often use a file called "base.rkt" where I put all the constants that can be used in different files. For non-constants, I use either a parameter or simply a getter procedure. You can even place there some procedures to be defined later (kind of li

Re: [racket] scribble, tabluar, latex problem?

Hi all, FYI: I talked to the maintainer of stabular.sty. He prepared a fix which I did test successfully. The fix should make its way to TeX Live in a reasonable time (usually soon after the package will have been uploaded to CTAN). -- Manfred On Thu, 31 Oct 2013 15:03:47 +0100 Manfred Lotz
