Submodules are now pushed to the Racket git repo. I haven't yet added a syntactic form to simplify (module* main #f ....) My first idea was `main', as in (main ....) but that seems too quiet and likely to create collisions. (It does create a collision in part of the contract library, which imports `racket/base' for syntax and defines a for-syntax `main' function.) Jon suggests `submodule': (submodule main ...) This suggestion has the advantage of replacing all `(module* .... #f ....)' combinations, and mostly I like this direction. However, `submodule' would be only one way to define a "submodule", while `submod' in a module path corresponds to "submodule" in the more general sense. It could be that `submodule' is on the right path and other terminology should change, or maybe there's a more specific word to use for a `(module* .... #f ....)' replacement instead of `submodule'. _________________________ Racket Developers list: http://lists.racket-lang.org/dev
