Documentation does not provide a directory example

[RussShermer]

It would be great to have examples for the directory and directory-background menus. For the directory menu, one would assume that the directory parameter would be a single string -- not a list. This can be inferred from the fact that parameters past in are not a list but a string delineated by spaces.

Ended up opening an error file with the generated exception to figure out why the code was breaking. :(

I am happy to supply my working code as an example.
