So to trace calls to the interface functions of a library I am to write a gasket for the library. I may as well put a display of the args in the gasket functions as at this point it is the same amount of code as hooking the trace. Of course then I have implemented trace.
So to use trace in racket all you have to do is implement trace .. really?? On Mon, Jan 19, 2015 at 10:06 PM, J.
