Thanks Laurent and Paolo. When you say (send a-text insert string), how are you getting a-text ? What I wanted was not to design a new editor window, but to modify or 'send' some command to current editor (the default one when we launch DrRacket) to clear some content or scroll down to hide the content, but I am not able to find a way to get handle for editor%, text% or anything else that can be helpful while executing 'send'
