[racket-users] Spacemacs Light & Dark Color Schemes for DrRacket

2017-08-27 Thread Christopher Walborn
A few years back I added a DrRacket color scheme template to the Base16 project and hosted a collection of these schemes which a few people have found useful. Base16 has since changed and I haven't kept up with it. That old collection should still work, but has always required some fine-detail m

2015-11-19 Thread Christopher Walborn
I appreciate all the responses. Time to do some reading and experimenting. At this point I've managed to read files and use regex to pull data into new variables or parameters I've set up, but I haven't gotten to the point of actually reading in racket data structures, so this gives me an angle

[racket-users] Configuration Files

2015-11-18 Thread Christopher Walborn
I'm looking for a way to read configuration files. The configuration file format can be anything provided it's easily human readable/writable. I found the ApacheConf solution on RosettaCode and may use that, but am wondering if there is a conf format that's more commonly used for Racket projects

Ok. So you're using command-line in the body of the first case, and the-mandatory-argument takes the first word. Thanks to #:argv others, command-line can process the remaining ones. `./manage -h` would essentually give `racket -h` while `./manage anything -h` would give you help from command-l

Oh, interesting. There's several new things in there for me to explore. Thank you. (And nice Beatles reference.) If you don't mind explaining -- what are the trade-offs between this approach and using the arg parsing features of racket/cmdline? Thanks, Christopher -- You received this messag

Thanks, Greg, that's helpful. By the way, I love racket-mode. DrRacket is a great environment, but I get frustrated editing text in anything but Emacs (or more recently Emacs with Evil via Spacemacs). Racket-mode provides enough support that I only switch into DrRacket when I've hit the wall with

[racket-users] Mandatory arguments for command-line

2015-11-12 Thread Christopher Walborn
I've just ported a small sript to Racket to investigate Racket as a scripting language for cli tasks. (My past Racket experiences have really only been with the HTDP languages.) I was quite happy with the process and the results, but I have one question I haven't been able to figure out on my own:
