Hello everyone, I am making study notes with scrrible. I hope the notes can be searched, just like Racket documents. How to do that?

The search box appears when you are use `#lang scribble/manual`.  
Note that the search is not a full-text search.

I've been using #lang scribble/manual, but I've never seen the search box.  
Do you want me to take a screenshot to show you?
