Seems to me that Moore and Rather used Moore's FORTH at the National Radio
Astronomy Observatory before they started Forth Inc. So you might say that
FORTH is a 'natural' for Astronomy!

As much as I love Racket, there are certainly times I miss 'C' and it's
ability to write code pretty much in assembler. As co-creator of the first
commercial fractal generation software (FracTools, FracInt was free not
commercial) I found the need to code down to the bare metal and a bit
beyond cha
The Ubuntu option is part of the drop down list that starts with Linux---I
just installed it and am assuming all went well. Haven't updated PATH yet so
don't know for sure, but am arguing with go at the moment so that will have
to wait a bit...

In the words of the greatly missed Emily Litella--- 'Never mind!' Just out
of paranoia and an innate streak of stubbornness, I exited the current

Don't know about 'do by default', but since command line switches are
already being used; '-o', the cost of one more seems slight and
reasonably safe as it would be backwardly compatible and forwardly
useful...

And even worse, it is extremely difficult to write code that will tell
you that! :)

The flaw then and the flaw now in the 'Semantic' web is that without
natural language capability, the necessary tagging for the web to work
its magic is not usable. Given that (a task I urge apon others as I am

My usual approach to this problem is to type the error message into
Google, hit return and examine the top hits. There is of course no
guarantee that this will produce relevant information, but I'd say the
success rate is > 80%. That said it might be useful to combine this
into the project somehow?
In the document page entitled "More: Systems Programming with Racket"
in section 5 it says:

The problem is that the listener that we created
