I recommend that approach, because it's simple, reliable, and easy to adjust when you're ready to switch to a new version. Note that you don't have to perform any quoting in the content of the file in "/etc/paths.d". We've experimented with an installer package that creates "/etc/paths.d/racket" as it installs Racket into "/Applications/Racket vX". But since the installer's only benefit is creating "/etc/paths.d", and since the installer takes away a user's ability to choose where Racket is installed, we've never switched the main distribution to that mode. FWIW, Racket used to be called "PLT Scheme", with a space in its name --- so there was no question back then whether the folder in "Applications" should have a space in its name when following Mac conventions. And we kept following the numbering style for "Racket" folders, because it still looks right to have a space. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Racket Users" group.
