[racket] Live coding with Racket?

Well, there is no "collects" subdirectory under fluxus,
and I've tried absolute paths. I have fluxus installed
under "program files" as indicated in the fluxus manual.

Obviously, something is not correct with the path.
I was hoping someone would know what the correct path is.

the package manager installed something, but gave errors when it 
ran as well.

I don't know about the current state of fluxus, but I'm suspicious about your collections path, in which it appears that fluxus is not preceded by a C:\...". This doesn't seem like a good idea, and it sounds like the fix might be to make your collections path consist of absolute paths.
