[racket] Getting program options/arguments?

If so, to develop the program, open the language dialog in DrRacket (cmd L) and ask for details. 
In the text box for "command line arguments ..." enter some strings between the parentheses, like this: 

  #("hello" "1" "#t")

and click OK
In the definitions window, enter 

  #lang racket 
  (define argv (current-command-line-arguments)) 
  (displayln argv)

Click RUN. Look at argv, and it will print the argv vector -- just like in other PLs. 

To run the program, create an executable, see Racket executable. 

At the command line, type 

 $ ./foo hello 1 #t 

assuming you saved the above program in foo.rkt and created the (stand-alone) executable in the local folder .

I've been scouring the racket I/O docs and even the r6rs docs, but haven't found anything for this in the I/O sections. I've tried playing around with creating input ports and everything but they don't get the parameters :/
