Oddly the search box didn't give me the answer yesterday (via Internet Explorer), but today it seems to work
after a delay.

As for examples, I think the more examples the better - one cannot have too many, if space allows. An example can be worth a thousand words of explanation. I expect I am not alone in wanting to know what a programming language or system is capable of in one's proposed area of use before deciding whether it is worth learning from
the ground up. Thus in this instance I missed the material on escaping.

Entering 'directory-exists?' in the search box at
http://docs.racket-lang.org/ (equivalently, use the Help Desk) gives
me one answer. Is the issue that the search is not good enough (it
could be better but it is pretty good) or that the docs don't have
enough context and examples?

want to look up "directory-exists?"
using Google in Mozilla Firefox is the best way.
