[racket] DrRacket init file on WIndows 8

The file racketrc.rktl is loaded only in Racket.exe, not it
GRacket.exe or DrRacket.exe.

I think that the easier way to do something similar is

1) Save a file "mylibrary.rkt" with the code you want.
2) Open DrRacket
3) Type in the definition window
#lang racket
(require "mylibrary.rkt")
4) Save this to the same folder of "mylibrary.rkt"
5) Press the Run Button
6) You can use now the interaction window


I actually prefer to program only in the definition windows, and use
the interaction windows for debugging.

It's also possible to define your own language, for example
super-racket that is racket with even more libraries included, and
then you only have to type
#lang super-racket
This is not difficult but it require many steps to create all the
folders and files to configure the new language.
