plot-new-window? or plot-frame after i do (require plot) aren't these functions part of plot? nor does it help if i change #lang racket to #lang slideshow for instance, this program doesn't work in drscheme: #lang slideshow (require plot) (plot-font-size (current-font-size)) (plot-width (current-para-width)) (plot-height 600) (plot-background-alpha 1/2) (slide #:title "A 2D Parabola" (plot-pict (function sqr -1 1 #:label "y = x^2"))) because it doesn't know what plot-font-size or plot-width is. the program is from: http://docs.racket-lang.org/plot/plot2d.html?q=plot-frame#%28def._%28%28lib._plot/main..rkt%29._plot-frame%29%29 so what am i missing here?
