The indirection uses a "local-redirect.js" script to rewrite the document links to local links within the browser. This mechanism is a step towards distributing compiled packages that include already-built documentation, where paths to other documentation can be different than in the build environment. If the links are not rewritten, they are queries to "pkg-docs.racket-lang.org", with the idea tha such a server will exist for reading all package documentation online. Also, a package's documentation that refer to documentation for uninstalled packages, in which case the corresponding links will not get rewritten and will continue to point to the server. Rendering the "local-redirect.js" script spends a lot of time just converting among different path formats. Various library changes in this commit are aimed at speed up those conversions, but the big improvement came from a `path->url-string' that shortcuts conversion os simple Unix paths. |

The Racket Programming Language =============================== Instructions for building Racket from source are in src/README. The main executables in this package: * DrRacket: Racket's integrated development environment (start here!). * racket: command-line tool for running Racket programs. * raco: command-line tool for compilation, documentation, and more. More Information ---------------- For Racket documentation, use DrRacket's `Help' menu, run the `Racket Documentation' application (Windows or Mac OS X), or run `raco docs' from a command line.
