<div dir="ltr">When writing code that require DrRacket to restart I usually open two DrRackets. In one instance of DrRacket I write the code - this is usually in an old version. In the other I test the code. This way I don't need to reopen the source file after each restart.<div>
<br></div><div>Another tip: To make DrRacket restart faster remove all tools you don't need. DrRacket actually start very faster with no tools.</div><div> </div></div><div class="gmail_extra"><br><br><div class="gmail_quote">
