With the help of `scribble/example`, I try to render this Scribble code:

```nohighlight
@examples[
  (integer? 6/3)]

```

This renders as

```scheme
> (integer? 2)
#t

```

presumably because `6/3` is evaluated before rendering, maybe even before Scribble sees it, but I would like to have the Scribble code rendered as

```scheme
> (integer? 6/3)
#t

```

Is this possible with `scribble/example`? If not or if it's complicated, I'm also interested in other approaches.

</div>

I see I can render

```scheme
(integer? 6/3)

```

_outside_ `@examples` with

```scheme
@code{(integer? 6/3)}

```

Is there a way to "escape" to `@code` from the input datum in `@examples`?

I found `#:escape` in the documentation of `@examples`, but I haven't been able to figure out how to use it.

You'd use `#:escape` like this (untested):

```scheme
@examples[#:escape unsyntax
(eval:alts (unsyntax (code "(integer? 6/3)")) (integer? 6/3))]

```

This works indeed; thank you! 🙂

```scheme
@examples[
  #:escape unsyntax
  (eval:alts (unsyntax (code "6/3")) 6/3)
  (eval:alts (unsyntax (code "(integer? 6/3)")) (integer? 6/3))]

```

renders as

```scheme
> 6/3
2
> (integer? 6/3)
#t

```

Technically, it seems possible to leave out the `#:escape unsyntax` because it's the default value, but maybe it's good to have it for extra clarity.
