drracket's "install package" menu item
It will infer whether to use 'raco pkg update' or
'raco pkg install' based on the currently installed
set of packages (but, of course, the details
section of the dialog lets you override this inference
if necessary)
That is, when right-clicking on an imported identifier, if the
file that has that identifier's definition is open and online
check syntax has completed, then offer a "jump to definition" menu
item that just jumps there with the already computed informtion.
If the file isn't open or online check syntax hasn't completed,
instead offer just to go to the file, without jumping to the definition
also
- things should generally work slightly better with submodules
- jumping to identifiers should do a better job with scrolling,
specifically it should scroll so the jumped-to identifier is
about 20% from the top of the window (unless it was already visible,
in which case no scrolling should occur)
One drawback to the current situation (after this commit) is that all
log messages are sent into the user's logger, even messages that come
about as part of DrRacket's implementation. It isn't clear how to fix
this without enumerating all of the possible messages to share and
explicitly forwarding them (both of which are suboptimal things).
On the plus side, the GUI now uses the "debug@GC" notation in a text
field, and when the logger pane is not open, there is no extra work
going on. Plus other, minor GUI improvements.
- use the same font/size as the definitions/interactions window
- add a checkbox to control scrolling behavior and,
- when scrolling, scroll to the begining of the line, not the end
are shown in the corner of the window
This was an attempt to avoid opening up a whole status line in the
bottom of the window much of the time. But it doesn't really work
since as soon as you have a syntax error (which are relatively common)
you get that whole line opened up. That it, this attempted GUI interaction
depended on the bogus premise that read errors are somehow happening
in a transient way between error-free states.

Specifically, two things:
- make drracket more careful to not crash when aspell
doesn't behave, and
- have a more careful test when clicking the menu item
(it now does a trial run of aspell instead of just
looking for the binary)
closes PR 13242 (I realize there is still a feature
request mentioned in the audit trail of that PR, but
since the main problem is fixed, I'll consider that
to just be something separate)
I started from tabs that are not on the beginning of lines, and in
several places I did further cleanings.
If you're worried about knowing who wrote some code, for example, if you
get to this commit in "git blame", then note that you can use the "-w"
flag in many git commands to ignore whitespaces. For example, to see
per-line authors, use "git blame -w <file>". Another example: to see
the (*much* smaller) non-whitespace changes in this (or any other)
commit, use "git log -p -w -1 <sha1>".
menu item in drracket so that it first checks to see if
the downloaded file matches a .plt archive and, if not,
try to put some friendlier message in front of the gzip error
