2014-11-19 Thread Alexey Cherkaev
Hi, I hope the author of the SICP package is on this email list. I have encountered this problem doing affine transformation of the picture: (paint ((transform-painter (make-vect 0 0) (make-vect 0.5 0.1) (make-vect 0 0.5)) einstein)) . . ../../../../../../Library/Racket/planet/300/6.1/cache/

[racket] web server: response terminates servlet?

2014-11-19 Thread George Neuner

Thank you, Jens. I think I've even seen that before ... although I gather SCGI has some limitations compared to FastCGI, it might work for me. I'll definitely give it a try. On Wed, Nov 19, 2014 at 1:41 AM, Jens Axel Søgaard wrote: > Hi, > > I think you need: http://www.neilvandyke.org/racket-scg
