I don't recommend using it with mode-lambda.
As it turns out, this has nothing to do with DrRacket or the undeniable problems that Jay mentions in his followup message in this thread. More precisely, I followed the instructions Matthew posted in another thread earlier today [1] and this problem seems to be the same problem as that one. Maybe it would be good to try to avoid messages like these, if for no other reason than to keep my heartbeat in a healthy range? :) DrRacket is something I've spent approximately 45% of my life trying to improve and while I can agree it isn't as good as it could be, more constructive criticism is a better way to go? Dare I suggest pull requests? :) Peace, Robby [1] https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/racket-users/WHIYeUgsXLw -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Racket Users" group.
