The one for saving files upon switching tabs?

Well, I hadn’t ever turned on the preference before, so I didn’t know whether 
it would necessitate choosing a file. But in answer to your question, no. See 
below.

> Would it work well for you if it
> only wanted to save files that already had filenames?

AFAICT now that I’ve turned on that preference, this is the behavior it has. It 
doesn’t prompt me to save an untitled file. And this is the behavior I would 
want, if DrR is saving upon tab-switching.

It feels weird to me to have DrR save files when I switch tabs; I’m somewhat 
trained to use the “modified” state as a marker that I’m in the middle of 
something, and “is everything saved?” is a part of my “am I done?” mental 
checklist when I’m working on multiple unrelated things in different tabs. I’ll 
have to impose a different discipline on myself (which may be for the best).

For now, I’ll try living with the preference enabled for a while. I don’t 
foresee doing any complicated work this spring, so it’s no big deal right now.

Thanks for the reply.

Cheers,
Jordan

In the preferences dialog, in the General tab, the last checkbox is
the one you want.

But let me confirm: the reason it is painful to turn on the preference
is that you have to choose a file? Would it work well for you if it
only wanted to save files that already had filenames?

[racket-users] Annoying run-warnings in DrR 7.5: How to disable?

2020-01-24 Thread Jordan Johnson
Hi all,

One thing I’ve noticed is new in DrRacket 7.5 is the warning dialog that pops 
up upon hitting Run, saying
“The file  is not saved; save it before Run?”
where  may be in some other tab than the one that has focus.

This is annoying the heck out of me, as I usually tend to have at least one tab 
open that’s just for doing little experiments that aren’t worth saving. I can’t 
seem to find any relevant preference settings.

How do I disable these warnings?

Thanks,
Jordan
