Hello everyone!!

There is probably no reason I should let this bug me so much...in fact, I know I found the answer in the documentation somewhere, but now I can't find it

I installed Dr Racket to work through the HTDP book, and am at the point where they say we can copy and paste the "rocket" image or use the Insert > Insert Image... menu

But when I try to use the menu, I can't find any images in the Racket 7.2 folder hierarchy

QUESTIONS

* Are thy not installed with the Mac version of Dr Racket?

* Is there a way to download the images from the Racket website

I have tried for 2 hours now to try to find the answer by searching both the internet, the group, the racket website, and the documentation

Any help or any nudges in the right direction would be greatly apprciated!!

Thanks!

I think the idea is that you can right-click on the image in the documentation using your browser and save it, then use the Insert Image menu in DrRacket to open the image you just saved. Does this make sense?

Yeah, that makes sense, and that works

I think I was expecting like a set of stock images that comes with Dr Racket

There is a small image collection available in 2htdp/image but the idea is that you do such examples with your own ideas and your own images. ~~ The next on-line release will suggest John's mouse-click suggestion. — Matthias
