[Apologies if this gets sent twice. I accidentally sent the first one to the googlegroups email address]
Stephen De Gabrielle announced this a few days ago on racket-dev, so I spent my weekend embracing my inner Star Wars nerd and made lightsabers in Racket. I had never used the pict library before, so it was also an interesting learning experience. I created a lightsaber function that produces a pict of a lightsaber. The only required argument is a color, which can be either a color name or a color% object. A length can be provided as an optional argument, as well as a style for the lightsaber hilt. The default hilt is Luke Skywalker's (#:style 'luke), but you can also select Darth Vader's (#:style 'vader), Kylo Ren's (#:style 'kylo), or Darth Maul's (#:style 'maul). See the attached picture for examples of each. The code is available at https://github.com/zamora/lightsaber Thanks to Stephen De Gabrielle for providing the incentive to learn about pict and have some fun!
