I don't understand what you want to get out of reposting this here? ISTM that the thread on racket-users covers things pretty well... I think Hugh has a point that Racket would not be suitable for development on small microcontrollers. I don't do embedded at all, but I get the impression that it's generally very static, with most data structures pre-allocated, or taken from a fixed-size pre-allocated pool. It's difficult for me to see how a dynamic language like Racket would fit that niche. But I don't know much about it. There may be a way to allow that kind of low-level control over memory usage. In general Hugh seems to be a bigot with questionable technical skills; e.g. Straight Forth is "straight" as in "no homosexuals allowed"... https://groups.google.com/group/comp.lang.forth/msg/bb9040268348ec02?dmode=source&output=gplain&noredirect --Josh _______________________________________________ fonc mailing list [email protected] http://vpri.org/mailman/listinfo/fonc
