[racket-users] Re: Complete Word (Ctrl+/)
I'm afraid I don't have a suggestion, but a question. The code you provided makes sense to me and duplicates something I'd like, but I'm unsure how to enable it in DrRacket. May I ask how you did so? Thank you.

[racket-users] Naive question on how to capitalize only the first word of a string
I'm quite new to Racket/LISP, so I hope this isn't breathtakingly obvious. Can someone please tell me the best way to capitalize just the first word in a multiword string. So, given the string "it was a dark and stormy night", I would like to get "It was a dark and stormy night". I see functions for turning everything lower case, everything uppercase or capitalizing each word, but nothing in line with what I hope to do. > (define it "cat dog") > (string-titlecase it) "Dog Cat" ; So close, but not quite "Dog cat" as I want.

Wow. In addition to getting my question answered, I learned about 6 other things. Thank you so much, everyone!

[racket-users] Code critique (of naive code) would be very appreciated
With help from this group, I've written my first baby-program in Racket and
would really appreciate any feedback on how to make it more idiomatic,
efficient and well-formatted (I struggle with where to break lines). Thank you
in advance.
The purpose is to fix the irregular capitalization of entries in the "Keywords"
field of a large BibLaTeX (.bib) file. A sample entry in the input file might be
@article{Ender-2016-Review-00,
Author = {Ender, P. B.},
Keywords = {Book Review, Behaviorial sciences, ANALYSIS OF VARIANCE,
experimental design},
...}
I want non-Keyword lines passed unchanged to the output file and each keyword
entry (potentially multiword) changed to have only its first word capitalized.
Thus
@article{Ender-2016-Review-00,
Author = {Ender, P. B.},
Keywords = {Book review, Behaviorial sciences, Analysis of variance,
Experimental design},
...}
Here is what I came up with.
;;;
#lang racket
(define in (open-input-file "/Users/me/BibDeskPapers/oldBib.bib"))
(define out (open-output-file "/Users/me/BibDeskPapers/newBib.bib" #:exists
'replace))
(define keyword-prefix "\tKeywords = {")
;; Return a string with only the first word capitalized and all else in lower
case
;; Courtesy https://groups.google.com/forum/m/#!topic/racket-users/gw8Ivm5HSZQ
(provide
(contract-out
[string-upcase-first-word (-> string? string?)]))
(define (string-upcase-first-word s)
(apply
string
(for/list ([c (in-string s)]
[i (in-naturals)])
(if (= i 0)
(char-upcase c)
(char-downcase c)
(module+ test
(require rackunit)
(check-equal? (string-upcase-first-word "") "")
(check-equal? (string-upcase-first-word "Cat Dog") "Cat dog")
(check-equal? (string-upcase-first-word "cat dog") "Cat dog"))
;; Main program
(for ([aLine (in-lines in)])
(cond
[(string-prefix? aLine "\tKeywords = {") ; Identify Keywords lines
(define keywords-as-list (string-split (string-replace aLine "\tKeywords =
{" "") ","))
(define cleaned-keywords (map (lambda (aString)
(string-upcase-first-word
(string-trim aString)))
keywords-as-list))
(display keyword-prefix out)
(display (string-join cleaned-keywords ", ") out)
(display "," out)
(newline out)]
[else (display aLine out) (newline out)]))
;;;
Thank you again.

[racket-users] Built-in way to list all children of a directory?
Naive question, here. As far as I can tell, (directory-list some-path) yields a list of files and directories immediately below some-path. I wish to capture all files and directories in some-path or any of the sub-directories of some-path. I didn't find an obvious option for doing so. Before I write my own--probably inefficient--way of doing so, I wanted to ask if there was a built-in command that would yield all the children of a path.

Re: [racket-users] Built-in way to list all children of a directory?
Struggling as a newbie with the documentation for find-files. In particular, the "predicate" part of (find-files predicate [ start-path] #:skip-filtered-directory? skip-filtered-directory? #:follow-links? follow-links?) Can anyone offer a working example? All file, all pdfs. Doesn't really matter. Just something concrete to get me started. Many thanks! -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Racket Users" group.

[racket-users] Re: Searching diffrences in two lists
If order doesn't matter and it would be okay for duplicates *within* a list to be deleted, you might make use of * Lists can be converted to sets, via list->set and back again * There are many set methods to yield unions, intersections and differences between sets. See https://docs.racket-lang.org/reference/sets.html. That should be a good start.

[racket-users] Hint on opening enclosing directory of current file from DrRacket
I hope this isn't painfully obvious to everyone but me, but I'd found it really frustrating until I found a solution. So, I thought I'd share. (If that's not appropriate traffic for the mailing list, I'd appreciate a more veteran hand letting me know. I'm still observing the norms.) Issue: While using DrRacket, I often want to open (in the Finder) the folder in which the current file is located. Many Mac applications allow one to do this with command-clicking the icon atop a window, but DrRacket doesn't. So, I need an alternative. Solution: Issue the command (system "open .") from the Interaction window (one could do it from the Definition window, although I'm not sure why one would). Why it works (I think...): The documentation for "system" indicates that it operates in the current working directory unless otherwise directed. DrRacket sets, unless otherwise directed, the current working directory to the directory of the most recently run file. Since "." indicates the current directory, the command opens that directory. Caveats: 1. Since CWD is set to the most recently run file, you have to have run the file whose enclosing directory you wish to open. The default appears to the home directory. 2. I know this works on MacOS. I can't see why it wouldn't work on Unix systems. Windows scares me, so I have idea if it would work there. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Racket Users" group.

Re: [racket-users] Hint on opening enclosing directory of current file from DrRacket
Thanks for the quick comment. Unless I'm missing something (quite possible...nay, likely), the triangle in the upper left launches a File Open dialog at the requested location. That's cool and useful, but a bit different. The use case I had in mind was wanting access to the folder *in the Finder* so I could drag the file onto an email to send, create a new non-Racket file like notes or belatedly put the project under git control. Perhaps I'm just missing something about the menu you pointed out... Many thanks! -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Racket Users" group.
