If this is the best practice I'll move back in that direction again. Can I assume that when you say everyone uses racket setup that the arching strategy here is for a local library/collection to be established as as a planet lib associated with a development link and use raco as the make-build system for the local collection? > > Second, how do I tell racket to give a full > > stack trace? > > It's on by default, but it works less well on some platforms.

[ray@ray rktlib]$ rlwrap /usr/local/racket/bin/racket -i -S /code/rktlib Welcome to Racket v5.1.3.3. > (require compiler/compiler) > (compile-collection-zos "c1") for-each: expects type <proper list> as 2nd argument, given: #<void>; other arguments were: #<procedure:.../compiler/cm.rkt:594:4> === context === /usr/local/racket/collects/compiler/compiler-unit.rkt:199:13: for-loop /usr/local/racket/collects/racket/private/misc.rkt:87:7 Thanks again in advance.
