Seems like a FAQ, but:

I want to associate a single "sound player" with a drscheme process.  When 
student code runs, it needs to send messages to that sound player.  I want to 
make sure there's only one running at a time.

The first thing that pops into my head is some kind of "shared-require" form, 
but I don't see such a thing.

The second thing that pops into my head is a tool; I understand how I can set 
up a tool so that it gets run only once at startup, and creates a value that 
gets associated with every DrRacket frame.  Unfortunately, I can't figure out 
the second part of the equation: how does a user program then connect to the 
DrRacket frame to get the value? I don't want to make the user click some extra 
button every time they run their program, and I *really* don't want to mess 
around with language levels and manipulating the user's source code.

Basically, I just want a process-level global value.  I must be missing 
something really obvious, here.

Thanks,

John
