I follow racket mail lists through an interface to gmane.io that gives a nntp 
feed.

Will that still work - I assume that the gmane.io user has a mail address that 
was registered.

Also can we get a gmane.io bridge set up for the Discourse mail list.

Not started it yet. Just using DrRacket and text editor for this issue.

Running DrRacket from the GUI. ie the equivalent of open DrRacket.app

[racket-users] Gracket format

2019-08-28 Thread Mark Bestley
I am just learning racket using the real of Racket book.

However I am have problems wil file formats.
My .rkt file has become gracket format but I have no images or any non 
ascii/unicode text in it. This messes up version control and use of other 
editors.

How can I force DrRacket not to corrupt the text file? and only change if I add 
images?

The only odd thing I think I have done that might matter is Collapse 
S-expression.
