03:22 Gwyth: I want to write something like:
03:23 Gwyth: (a1 2)
03:23 Gwyth: so that it would figure out that it's fun1 that it needs to execute.

Searching make-hash function in documentation shows the article refers me to the document hashtables.html which says one has to (require racket/hash) to use hashes, but it didn't work for me, though (require racket/serialize) does. Is it ok ?

19:21 mwolfe: I am trying to setup drracket so I don't have to use relative paths like "../folder1/test.rkt" when requiring a file.  I've tried setting the collection paths in the choose language dialog, but that doesn't seem to work. I would like to be able to require the file like this "folder1/test.rkt".  Am I looking in the right place with collection paths?  Any pointers would be great! Thanks.

19:34 eli: Demosthenes: Yes, it won't be too hard, and if you end up with something useful we can get it into the core -- it's something that I thought about implementing a few times.  (The real fun is using these names to get recursive calls.)
19:34 (quit) hanDerPeder: Quit: hanDerPeder
19:43 Demosthenes: eli: really, i'm worried about the unusual use cases. for what i'm doing i need just really basic names to capture a plain regexp. the syntax starts to resemble line noise when you start doing look ahead/behind and setting options ;]
19:43 Demosthenes: i know the common lispers tried to make a S-expression syntax for regular expressions at one point
19:45 eli: IiRC, schemers did it earlier, look up SRE.
19:45 eli: Also, see the parser tools library, which might be more fitting.
20:01 Demosthenes: yeah, i typically do alot of data extraction work. perl was always a natural choice given the flexibility of the regexp engine
20:01 Demosthenes: working on similar to learn scheme
