I just noticed that the stepper for intermediate student with lambda pretty
much does what I want. I guess I can look into that.

I think what happens is that when you use the language with the repl it ignores
the reader and just looks at the exports from the language (main.rkt).

I misunderstood because of your mismatched parentheses. Without eval, you can’t
do better than that. Parens rock.

Makes for really good unit testing for I/O too.

Some really good thoughts there. I think key is to have some initial
structured content to give him a springboard and then allow him to build out
from there.
LOL, yes, I agree wrt keeping web programmer (specifically JS) influences away
to avoid brain rot! :D Even though my older son starte

Matthias, thanks for that. So essentially the scripted components are available
in different focuses (e.g., HoC, Algebra, Reactive, Data Science, & Physics)
here:
http://www.wescheme.org/openEditor
Correct? Are these to be used in a stepwise fashion moving from HoC to Algebra
to Reactive, etc?

I have the impression that you are conflating rendering as an output with
representing as a string. So the following code tries to sketch this:
(require xml)
;; Xexpr -> String
(define (xexpr->xml/pretty x)
(with-output-to-string
(lambda ()
(display-xml/content
(xexpr->xml x)

You need to apply the function, not just compute the substitution. See
applicable struct in previous message. This should just work out, w/o much ado.
