Preview of output in DrRacket #281

Open cwebber opened 3 years ago

cwebber commented 3 years ago

Something that would be helpful would be if there was a Scribble plugin that gives a preview of output in DrRacket. This could be done by building a renderer that writes to a text canvas widget.

I can explore making this if there's interest, but not until at least #280 is done.

This sounds like a great idea. What do you think about getting the preview to render in the REPL when a scribble module is run?

Hi jackfirth! Huh, that's an interesting idea... it seems feasible since the REPL "resets" anyway. I had been thinking a separate window, but maybe reusing the REPL is a good idea?
