Going back to the copyright issues -- is this a good time to get rid

Hi,
I have two unrelated questions, and I hope no one will mind my bundling them
together:

Thanks! Scribble now uses those for code insets, and it now seems to
adapt correctly to different Latex styles.

I know about `\parskip' for paragraph spacing. Is there something

The `scribble/base' and `scribble/manual' styles already put space
between blocks, and so no extra space is needed. The SIGPLAN style, in
contrast, uses indentation instead of space between paragraphs.
(Actually, the SIGPLAN style has an option for using space between
paragraphs, and probably code
Oh. So inter-paragraph space is the same thing as the
space-around-a-display? (I think at the TeX level they are different,
but maybe that's only to make things more customizable?)

This sounds great! One small question: why only in sigplan conf and
not in all --pdf generated racketblock's?

As of v5.1.0.5, Scribble renders `racketblock', `codeblock',
`interactions', etc., in a different way than before. Indentation
relative to surrounding text is now implemented by a nested-flow style,
instead of adding spaces to the start of each line. (Using spaces was a
hack from before sorting out
Yes, go ahead!

Hi Erich,
thanks for the hint - this is a VERY cool tool indeed!
Good to know even in case it won't work in my current circumstances...!
Unfortunately I don't have much time to invest today - I just made a short

Hi Noel,
thanks for the hint, that seems to work!
Of course, it would be nicer to have drracket available, so I will try a
different kind of workaround first now, where I connect to the Red Hat
VirtualBox appliance from my Macintosh host, having racket running on the host.
But as a last resort,

Yes, but when it comes to macros, it espouses a view that was never
compatible with any Report on Scheme and is even old-school for plain
Lisp. If

I read TYSIFD many years ago and I don't remember exactly what it says
about macros.

I am going through TYSIFD which is said to be compatible with mzScheme.
Descriptions of macros seem to be different depending which book one reads.
TYSIFD advises the reader to 'require' the defmacro library
- '(require (lib "defmacro.rkt"))' when using Racket (I assume) - and
