Preparing DrScheme

IMPORTANT: DrScheme provides several language levels that customize DrScheme for different levels of learning. Initially, set DrScheme's language to Beginner. You must do this manually, because Beginner is not the default language when you install DrScheme:

1. Select Configure Language... from the Languages menu. A dialog box appears with a choice control (a.k.a. ``pop-up menu'') at the top.
2. Choose the Beginner langauge from the choice control and click on OK.
3. Click the Execute button. After clicking Execute the lower window indicates that the current language is Beginner.

You need to set the language level to Beginner only once after DrScheme is installed. When you quit and restart DrScheme, the langauge setting is preserved.

The Beginner language level is used for Parts I and II. For the Intermezzos or for Part III, switch to Intermediate. Finally, starting with Part VI, use Advanced.

See Preparing DrScheme Jr for information on setting the language level in DrScheme Jr.
