This is definitely possible, but maybe not easy. I'd first try writing a racket program with Scribble submodules, and have the outer program invoke a renderer on each submodule ``` #lang racket (module dotfile-1 scribble/??? ....) (require (rename-in 'dotfile-1 [doc doc:1])) (???-render doc:1) ``` If that doesn't work, then I'd try making the outer module scribble/manual and writing a function that renders one codeblock to a file. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Racket Users" group.
