[racket-dev] autosave of unsaved files, docs

The docs at

http://docs.racket-lang.org/drracket/drracket-files.html?q=crash#(part._drracket-autosave-files)

are all about the autosave of files that have already been associated
with disk.  What about those that haven't?  There is no reference to
the Documents/mredauto.* files, which thankfully just saved me a bunch
of time.

Incidentally, searching for "crash" in Help Desk offers literally
nothing.  For someone who's just suffered the trauma of a crash,
perhaps a soothing entry would help, such as a pointer to the above
docs on autosave files.  (And there may be some other aliases to
"crash" that are also worth indexing.)

[Fwiw, "mredauto" doesn't show up in Help Desk, either.]
