You probably already know about this, but proc-doc is the closest we
have at the moment.

I've been wanting something docstring- or javadoc-like for Scheme and
Racket since forever.
I have had my own kludges for this since forever, but neither myse
This is a pointless exchange that misses the reason for its initiation.
Attendee: "Here's a nice feature that I find awfully useful. How do I
get it in DrRacket?"

Yes, but Racket docstrings aren't even there at all (yet :))...

Maybe not packaged for beginners, but it is doable...

That's totally different from what Shriram described.

There is good support from the interviews for having dynamic
documentation in DrRacket would help quite a bit. Two out of the four
students I interview requested the feature.
Here are some relevant inteview excepts.

Sure, but if we have the manpower/energy for this, then it would be
nice to have, no? (We'd probably do something syntactically and not
via runtime values, but the essential idea seems like it would carry
over.)

While I have always liked doc strings in Lisps -- and koodos to Python for
copying another feature from Lisp -- is it as critical to HtDP programming as
built-in check-expect with coverage? (No but I think having it would be nice.)
Do ask the person who asked whether Python has coverage now. --
Yes, when I taught "HtDP" in Python two years ago, this feature was handy. It
provide a more convenient way for recalling/looking up contract/purpose
statements right in the REPL than opening a search in a browser. If I remember
correctly, I think the IDE might have also done something smart wit
Python apparently has a feature where you essentially put the
contract/purpose in the text of a function, and when you type the
function's name, it prints out that documentation. (It sounds like
the docstrings of Common Lisp.)
This came up on day 1, minute 15 of the TSRJ workshop.
