[racket] print-graph, DrRacket, and command-line REPL
In 5.0.1, how do I make REPL printing in both DrRacket Interactions and
the command-line REPL use the shared structure format?
In DrRacket, I cannot seem to do this regardless of whether the "Show
sharing in values" is true, and whether "Output Style" is "write" or
"print".

I want to see the shared structure format, since I have some library
code that uses shared list tails heavily to save space and to shortcut
some searches.
I believe that PLT 3xx, at least, used shared structure format by default.
