[racket-dev] check over this doc fix to slideshow's (dc ...) before I push?
The docs for slideshow's (dc ...) call didn't mention the use of the 'a' and 'd' arguments. I inferred based on the following docs that these referred to ascent and descent, and assumed based on the following docs that these were added to the height passed to the procedure. Let me know if I should/shouldn't push the commit below:
