Yes. I think you'd want to copy the "zoneinfo" directory that way. > (2) How do I locate these files after they're > copied? Is this what the (notional) 'share mode for > `define-runtime-path` would do? Yes. Although you can find the files using `find-share-dir` and/or `find-user-share-dir`, adding a 'share mode to `define-runtime-path` would make it possible for `raco distribute` to find and carry along a directory/file when it's present, the same as 'so mode does. (I confused 'lib mode with 'so mode before. I think you want something like 'so mode.) -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Racket Users" group.
