John,
If your name is ever submitted for sainthood, I'll sign the documents.
Many thanks from a grateful teacher! (Now I need to learn how to do this
stuff myself...)
Regards,
Josh

Okay, this might now be done. You should be able to install it using
raco pkg install simply-scheme
OR you can use the package manager from within DrRacket.
MAJOR disclaimer: I am not a user of Simply Scheme, and this package does not
appear to include any tests.
However, it appears that

Okay, I spent half an hour on this, and I think I’m done… um, almost.
Actually, it appears that my quick job of updating the drracket tool has
resulted in a configuration that can reliably make DrRacket seg fault (!).
Since this package does not involve FFI in any way, this is a bug in DrRacket,
The documentation currently states:
"When DrRacket starts up, it looks for tools by reading fields in the info.rkt
file of each collection and the newest version of each PLaneT package installed
on the system. (Technically, DrRacket looks in a cache of the "info.rkt" files
contents created by r
While I appreciate the level of detail that Stephen provided, I am
absolutely slammed and don't know github usage, so what looks smallish to
you (and probably would be for me if I were better educated on the system)
is looking mighty large to me. In terms of the fix, what needs to change
is that t

I could be missing something, but I think a filename completion
procedure (not the DrRacket integration part) might be a doable exercise
for a budding Racket programmer, so long as they already have a basic
familiarity with using the filesystem and shell as a normal user.

+1. The specific use case for me is super-scripty things like this:
(csv->list “~/clements/datasets/poly-dashboards/2178-data-schedule.csv’)
… to load a file from disk. One could make the claim that I should choose paths
and filenames that I always remember, but in fact, shell-based completion i
They way I look at it is the Racket/gui libraries are already calling the
‘on-event’ method, you have to override their calls so your code can pass
mouse events to your code.
I suppose the trade-off is your code should work on windows, Linux and
macOS with no change.
Kind regards,
Stephen

They can be updated, but I would recommend that, instead of updating
them, you move them to pkgs, as Stephen suggests.
(Of course, if you know people are using them
I don’t think packages on PLaneT can be updated but I may be wrong.
I have moved things from PLaneT to the Racket Package system, and it isn’t
very hard, certainly wasn’t time consuming (an evening).

2. add the old code,

Hi,
I’ve taken it upon myself to add the map link to the github wiki homepage
https://github.com/racket/racket/wiki - with the hope that it will help
provide a way for Racketeers to meetup.
The wiki incidentally includes some advice on starting a local meetup
