From 0ef26298d48bd0ae605096a187be35ef4759a722 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jose Antonio Ortega Ruiz Date: Sat, 20 Aug 2011 03:23:30 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] elisp: customizable patience amount on racket startup In this little notebook i'm using, racket takes its time to start. In fact, it can take more the previously slotted 10 seconds. Hence the new geiser-repl-startup-time variable. --- doc/repl.texi | 16 ++++++++++++++++ elisp/geiser-repl.el | 8 +++++++- 2 files changed, 23 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) diff --git a/doc/repl.texi b/doc/repl.texi index bef0f3f..d1e1f6b 100644 --- a/doc/repl.texi +++ b/doc/repl.texi @@ -329,6 +329,22 @@ loads a file specified via the @code{-l} flag.
