Thank you for the comments so far. As for the gentleman who was "reluctant
to say anthing negative," please don't be — the point of making a prototype
is to find out what doesn't work.
I won't cover every suggestion here on the mailing list because it will
become unwieldy. But I'll move the tricki

awesome. Truly.
Thank you, thank you, thank you!
My only gripe so far is the floating search box that insists on being
in the top-left corner and won't scroll away. On a desktop browser,
some people find that sort of thing mildl

Either week is fine for me.
I also think Wednesdays are good generally.

The #:break clause isn't available in the for form of v5.2.1:

Matthew,

appreciate, and which makes me relucta
Hello
I am learning to program in racket - and have questions regarding forcing
the exit from a for loop. I wrote the following program to determine the
largest prime factor of a number. (The correct answer being 11 in the case
of input 165)

Hi all,
Sometimes when defining struct types it is useful to have fields which
are essentially "private" to the module (fields whose accessors/mutators
are not exported from the module.) I want these fields to be initialized
automatically with arbitrary values generated at construction time.

Lovin' it. I am writing the draft of HtDP/2e in Scribble:
http://www.ccs.neu.edu/home/matthias/HtDP2e/index.html
and I have had several requests for the content menu to slide along in the left
margin.
I think it would be okay if searching remained at the top, and the content menu
were slid

This looks really g
It's quite nice, especially the automatic resizing.
On a Samsung Note 2, it works well in Firefox and Chrome, but not on the
default browser (unless I check "Adapt pages sizes", but this an
enforcement of the browser, and some quirks still remain). It may be an
issue of the browser itself though.
First, this is great! I tried it on my Nexus 7 tablet, and it worked very well.
Second, a very minor bug: on Chrome on the Nexus 7 (but not on Chrome
on my desktop, or on Firefox on the tablet), the grey search box when
you scroll down doesn't quite go down far enough -- the "p" in "up"

That looks fantastic.
When rethinking Racket documentation CSS&JS, please consider supporting
narrower browser windows by making the left and right margins optional.
Autohide the TOC, and make the footnotes either inline or autohidden.
Regarding downloadable fonts, I suggest making Scribble default to
generic font
I like it! Making the window smaller and see the font shrink is especially
amazing.
A technical question: in the docs for contract-out (
http://mbutterick.github.io/racket-doc-redo/doc/reference/attaching-contracts-to-values.html),
I see that the code oversteps its box in the new version, but not
