[racket-users] Puzzler - A Language for Puzzle Games

Hello everyone! My name is Alex Owens and I've been a lurker on this mailing list - and in the Racket community in general - for a while. While I'm still relatively new to Racket, I wanted to share a project I worked on called Puzzler. Puzzler is a DSL to enable easy creation of 2D grid-based

  Hi, I’m writing to the group looking for help with a performance issue.  I’m coding a gallery like application, using the racket/draw library, but the bitmap% class seems to be pretty slow. The (make-bitmap 4000 3000) operation takes more than 4 seconds on my computer (a macbook pro with a
