What you describe sounds like the LSR, which already now has free
text search facilities (at least if you stay connected).

Currently we have a few different ways of introducing examples in the

writers do whatever they want?
I have the idea that there should be created a separate PDF doc with
examples, including the snippets (whose pics happen to be broken in my
web browser, Safari 3). Then the user manual should reference that,
with a list of what the examples manual contains.
The idea is based on what I find the easiest way to find programming
usage, namely, in the PDF viewer (I use Preview, but I thing it works
in Adobe Reader), type a keyword, and looking through all matches. The
keyword can be both musical terms as well programming names. So
therefore it helps with a manual mentioning these terms, and with
directions for further reading
Also, the user manual is already somewhat heavy. So having a second
manual with examples would be great.
In the context of your question, this gives the opportunity to put
examples which are too spacious into the examples manual. The user
manual should be restricted to examples that illustrate concept of the
text.
Perhaps there should be a third manual: "advanced usage", as well.
