[racket-dev] JFYI: Apple's Mac App store now online
This article from TidBITS http://db.tidbits.com/article/11864 describes the launch of the new Mac App Store. It's clearly Apple's intention to make this the primary way of distributing software on the Mac, and it wouldn't surprise me to see not-so-subtle barriers to non-app-store app installation going up soon. And, while I'm sure Apple would cheerfully grind us all into a paste if it would produce a significant one-time bump to the cash flow sheet, I don't think this is necessarily a terrible thing for DrRacket. Um, although I'm not coming up with any good side to this right now. Anyhow, I wouldn't be surprised if in the next few years users start asking why DrRacket isn't available through the App store. I would search to see whether other IDE's are part of the App Store, but... I don't think you can browse it until you install the App Store. And I think there's something about getting a required tattoo, also. John (sorry, that was in poor taste) _ For list-related administrative tasks: http://lists.racket-lang.org/listinfo/dev

Which version of Racket are you using?

Re: [racket-dev] problems with eps file generation in Windows?
There have been a lot of changes to the gui systems since then. I recommend you either use a released version or track the git head more closely. In the version I have, under windows, the program below seems to produce the right output: #lang racket (require redex) (define-language lc (e (e e) (λ (x) e) x) (x variable-not-otherwise-mentioned)) (render-language lc lc.eps) Robby On Tue, Jan 11, 2011 at 12:21 PM, Stephen Chang stch...@ccs.neu.edu wrote: Oops, sorry, it's 5.0.1.7.

[racket-dev] Release for v5.1 is about to begin
The release process for v5.1 will begin in about one week. This means that the `release' branch will be created -- please make sure that code that you're responsible for is as stable as possible, and let me know if there is any new work that should not be included in this release. NOW IS THE TIME TO FIX BUGS THAT YOU KNOW ABOUT The time between the `release' branch creation and the actual release is for fixing new errors that prevent proper functioning of major components and that show up during the preparation for a release. -- Ryan Culpepper _ For list-related administrative tasks: http://lists.racket-lang.org/listinfo/dev
