In any case, at least I realized that (require racket/draw/unsafe/cairo-lib) followed by (define libcairo cairo-lib) is (just ?) a more portable way of saying: (define libcairo (ffi-lib "libcairo")) [Or in Windows: (define libcairo (ffi-lib "libcairo-2")) because it is called libcairo-2.dll] Like this: #lang racket (require racket/draw/unsafe/cairo-lib) (require ffi/unsafe) cairo-lib #<ffi-lib> > (define libcairo (ffi-lib "libcairo")) . . ffi-lib: couldn't open "libcairo.dll" (The specified module could not be found.; errno=126) > (define libcairo (ffi-lib "libcairo-2")) > libcairo #<ffi-lib> > (eq? cairo-lib libcairo) #t > -------------------- So I guess making my own set of bindings shouldn't be too much of racket-science...
