Unfortunately, you can't use "case" on strings, for somewhat esoteric
reasons:
http://docs.racket-lang.org/reference/case.html
http://docs.racket-lang.org/reference/eval-model.html#(part._model-eq)
The R5RS document gives some more explanation and examples of what can
be compared with eq/eqv/equal:
http://docs.racket-lang.org/r5rs-std/r5rs-Z-H-9.html#%_sec_6.1
You might find that "cond" or a hashtable can be used instead. Or maybe
you don't actually need strings at this point in the code, and there is
a better way to do it.
