Thanks everyone! I'm gonna have a closer look at those. What I ended up doing was something like this: (struct Wrapper (exp arg) #:mutable) (define-syntax-rule (define-wrapper name exp) ((define name (Wrapper (delay exp) #f))) (define (Wrapper->fn w) (lambda (arg) (if (Wrapper->arg w)

Ah, that makes sense. I guess I didn't realize (or took for granted) that `raco pkg new` was doing all that. With that in mind, it certainly does make more sense to run `raco pkg new` locally. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Racket Users" group.

Hi, I've been thinking about small things that can be done to lower the barriers to entry to the racket community, and I've come up with some ideas! 1. Adopts the standard GitHub set of issue labels* for all active repositories, only deviating where necessary. Benefit - This would allow

Hello, I posted this question once, nobody answered, this is a second try. I believe there should be a solution because the problem seems rather common. See, I have a DSL compiler implemented in Racket as a #lang, syntax-parse etc. Like most compilers, it can emit somewhat diifferent code from

Sounds like you're going to take a wait-and-see attitude, which sounds wise to me, but you are also welcome to participate in the discussion! As for adopting-new-syntax vs backwards-compatibility, does it help if I were to tell you that anything new will always be "opt in", in the sense that

My question was not about backwards compatibility, but about adopting new default syntax. For me it is as good as dropping s-expressions because only default\main syntax is what really mater for me. Sorry for not expressing myself clearly enough. воскресенье, 11 августа 2019 г., 21:47:20 UTC+3
