The web is a terrible thing to be an expert about.
1) Greg is correct that the styling of 'margin-note' was changed to keep it
visible on narrow screens. On wider screens, it moves into the margin.
2) The new styling is implemented as an override of the old styling, which
is still lurking in the

This is fine advice.
If you wanted to prepare just a little bit more, you might run "raco
pkg update --clone drracket" (and then respond "yes" to the prompt).
This would, in the directory you're in, create a "drracket" sub
directory and a few others that contain the source code of DrRacket,

Matthew Butterick is the expert on this, but in the meantime here's
some info I hope is mostly correct.
The margin-note is "responsive", to use the latest Web 2.0 (or
whatever verison we're up to now) jargon. If the page is wide enough,
it will still appear to the right. (Try resizing the browser

Hi to all,
margin-note of scribble no longer puts the notes in the right hand margin.
I prefer the older layout with the margin-notes at the right hand side of
the text proper.
This may be a problem for margin-notes consisting of much text.
However, I think a margin notes should always be very co
If the issue you're facing is mutual dependencies between modules, then using
units[1] is one possible solution.
Units are first-class modules that allow cyclic linking, and would avoid the
need to use include. In particular using #lang racket/unit [2] may be useful to
convert each the modules
I am sorry, I've not explained well my intents.
My actual situation is like this:
I have a main.rkt file which require the most of all other modules, and it is
the entry point of the application, it provide access to almost all procedures
contained in the required modules.
Modules are abundant in

Racket module system is very efficient, but it wont be more efficient in the
particular situation of dozens (and counting...) of highly interdependent
modules, every one containing a big number of functions to just include all in
a single namespace?
I can think of various shortcomings (like missi

I know DrRacket has some downsides, but I sure wish many more people would see
the light, use it, and help identify and better yet fix the problems.
Thanks for the vote of confidence -- Matthias

I see it is possible to do now, but require some not negligible amount of work,
at least at this time for me... Thanks for the informations.
I will continue to search for an hack on background, nonetheless...
I will let you all know if I find something.

Ok. Some elements of answer:
- DrRacket can be started with the option "-singleInstance" to make sure
that an existing window is reused to open new files. This option must be
used each time the `drracket` executable is called, so it's better to
simply make an alias. This also requires libunique to
