The continuously-on version of check syntax intentionally drops the coloring parts of the "click the button" version of check syntax. It does this so it doesn't have to fight with the syntax colorer, so I am reluctant to turn it back on.
If you use only Racket-like languages, it may work for you to go to the preferences dialog (Color tab, Racket sub-tab) and change the styling of the "keyword" option. Then, the things listed in the Editing tab -> Indenting will show up with whatever you set the "keyword" option to. If you use other languages where you control the syntax colorer (or there is a notion of "keyword" that's not lexically sensitive) you can also get the same effect by changing how the tokens are identified. hth, Robby On Thu, Apr 9, 2015 at 1:59 AM, Jack Firth <jackhfi...@gmail.com> wrote: > The DrRacket Check Syntax button colors syntax in a helpful way, particularly > the distinction it makes between required/language bindings and bindings > defined in the module.
