On the bright side it's a chance for me to learn more about how things like modules and namespaces work, below the surface. Also I'm starting to look at DrRacket source, because its F5/Run is reliable. Is that because it's using `enter!` differently, or not using it at all? And how if at all does it differ in other respects to what things like XREPL and Geiser do? This whole subject area has been a bit confusing for me, so, opportunity to learn more. Having said that, this is something that probably ought to "just work", and it does seem like there is some bug at the moment. <div class="HOEnZb"><div class="h5"> On Fri, Feb 8, 2013 at 3:29 PM, Ray Racine <<a href="mailto:ray.racine@gmail.com">ray.racine@gmail.com</a>> wrote: > I've been seeing the same behavior.
