PLT Scheme guide says that it's implemented sort function is able to sort a list according to an extarcted value using a lambda function. link text

The guide provides an unworking code example of this-

(sort '(("aardvark") ("dingo") ("cow") ("bear"))
      #:key car string<?)

Which returns an error.

How is this function is supposed to be calles so that it will actually sort a list according to values calculated by a given function?
