Question

I’m trying to get Geiser’s REPL to work in Emacs, but it doesn’t seem to be able to find Racket.

racket is on my path, but anytime I type

run-geiser

followed by

racket

it complains:

Unable to start REPL: Searching for program: no such file or directory, racket

I read in the Geiser docs that I may have to manually tell Geiser where to find racket, but I can’t tell where to configure this property of Geiser.

Thanks for your help.

Ok, so I added:

(setq geiser-racket-binary "/home/user/racket/bin/racket")

to my .emacs file after loading geiser.el.

I was expecting a configuration file somewhere to set this.

Thanks.
