colors-as-strings🔗ℹ

thoughtstem

 (require colors-as-strings) package: color-strings

This just provides, as identifiers, strings that correspond to colors in the racket/draw color database.

So you can do, for example:

#lang racket
 
(require 2htdp/image colors-as-strings)
 
(circle 40 'solid red)

Save yourself a few keystrokes per color. And get Racket to detect your mispelled color names!
