raco-find-collection : a script for finding collections

This script helps you find collections or packages that you have installed in your copy of Racket. Requires Racket 6.0 or newer.

Installation

Use one of:

• raco pkg install raco-find-collection
• raco pkg install git://github.com/takikawa/raco-find-collection

Usage

Quick usage: cd `raco fc <pkg-or-collection-name>`

If you are looking for a collection, just use a collection path like those you would pass to require. For example, typed/racket, racket/dict, or typed-racket/core.

Collection paths are prioritized over package paths if the name is ambiguous.

If a collection or package can't be found, the command returns the current directory (for convenience in scripts that use cd).

If the -i flag is provided, the script will ask you to disambiguate if there are multiple paths that match the name that you provide.

You can also add something like the following to your .bashrc:

function rfc() {
  cd `racket -l find-collection/run -- $@`
}

# interactive version
function rfci() {
  cd `racket -l find-collection/run -- -i $@`
}

Note: using racket -l in the shell function is faster than calling the raco version of the script, but the latter is easier to remember when using it manually.
