In general it is nice that scribble/manual applies reader abbreviations, but in some cases I want to suppress abbreviation, especially in an interaction. I have made several attempts like (interaction #:eval (make-base-eval ...) ...) Is there a way to do this?

As I understand code and codeblock do no evaluation and do not show the value of the expression. I am interested in the behaviour in interactions.

I'm not sure which "magic datum" to use, but hopefully it is possible to combine the codeblock/code forms from the previous message with those allowed by the eval form: https://docs.racket-lang.org/scribble/eval.html

I think, you'll need to use codeblock or code if you need to preserve the syntax pre-reader.
