JFYI, I attempted a textual version of racket a few days ago but ran into a few issues 1. docs fail to build because they require gui libraries to be installed. I got past this by disabling docs. 2. since there is already a 'racket' package the new package (and all its dependencies) need to renamed with a -textual suffix. I gave up at this point but hopefully after I figure out all the metadata that needs to change it will work. _________________________________________________ For list-related administrative tasks: http://lists.racket-lang.org/listinfo/users
