An excellent point.

In fact this is indeed a program just for me. It's a little diary/journal/notes tool which started as a quick experiment with scsh a number of years ago, which I then ported to Chicken when scsh died (boo-hoo), and which I'm now porting to Racket because I"m having difficulty getting Chicken to work on a new machine (and I need some urgent procrastination). It's slightly unfortunate that Racket's start-up time make it slightly suboptimal as a command-line tool, but raco make helps with that.

Best wishes,

Norman
