Re: Suggestion for improving ergonomics of repeat-maps: define-repeat-map

[Lars Ingebrigtsen]

I'd forgotten how all this works over in cl-defmethod land.  So:

(cl-defmethod foo (&rest gazonk &key bar zot &allow-other-keys)
  (list bar zot gazonk))

(foo :bar 1 :zot 3 5 6 7)
=> (1 3 (:bar 1 :zot 3 5 6 7))

However, the correct parameters won't be boldified in the echo area.
But if you do this:

(foo  5 6 7 :bar 1 :zot 3)

they will.  But that's ... even less helpful:

=> (nil nil (5 6 7 :bar 1 :zot 3))

And you can't put the &rest after &key.  So it seems like we've got some
oddities in this area.
