Hi All,
I just wanted to provide an update. My system shutdown to due to an
unexpected power outage in the neighborhood. Later on when power was
restored I started up my system. I brought up DrRacket and the missing
menu items were once again there. Strange indeed.
I had some strange issues trying to load Asumu's package in Racket
6.0.1. I was able to load it and see that it was loaded, but the Vim
mode was not in the edit menu. I got it to work later, but my problem
could have been that I was alternatively uninstalling and installing it
in Racket 6.0 while doing the same in Racket 6.0.1. The package source
was in the same directory both times which was outside the directory
tree of either Racket version. Maybe there is something going on in the
package build mechanism that is affecting what I was doing. I don't know.
Anyway. Thanks.

Hi Asumu,
The strange thing was that it did not disappear immediately at first.
The new menu item was there and so were the entries for the other
two. But those other entries disappeared later. I did try some key
combinations like ctrl-j, ctrl-k, command-j, and command-k. I was
thinking that maybe I could move between the two panes in the DrRacket
screen there. The command-j caused a window to scroll down from the
top of the DrRacket window. Untitled was highlighted at top and there
were cancel and ok buttons. The command-k stopped the evaluation
thread so interactions were disabled.
Anyway, even when I repeatedly uninstalled and reinstalled Racket, the
menu items did not come back. I never reinstalled the vi package
during all that time. So maybe there is a file somewhere that I need
to delete when I do an uninstall.

Edit->Modes and Edit->Keybindings, there weren't any choices any

not sure what happened. I then unistalled the pkg.
That's odd. I have the package installed too (I wrote it) and my
DrRacket still has those menu items. I'm on Linux though. AFAICT, I'm
not doing anything in the tool that would remove menu items.
It does add a menu item by overriding
`edit-menu:between-find-and-preferences`, but it does a super call so it
should be setting up other menu items too.
BTW, the tool source is here if anyone wants to check if I'm doing
something suspicious GUI-wise:
