[plt-scheme] Re: newbie question: printing structs?

Good to know, Jos.

Why aren't structures made with this minimal inspector
by default?  I had a pretty confusing time with this
myself.  Fundamental to understanding anything with
contents is seeing them.

Does creation of structures occur alot faster than
creation of equivalent (small) hash tables?

thank you,
george
