Thanks for the useful information about scmlate. I posted in the common-lisp group a toy example of a dictionary from racket to cl, but that package is much more complete. Perhaps adding some more definitions like the iterations for/list for*/list and the like would be interesting. ____________________ Racket Users list: http://lists.racket-lang.org/users
