Re: [Q] optional arguments

[Steve Tell]

ooh, one I can answer...

        (use-module (ice-9 optargs))

and then use either "define*" or "define*-public" as appropriate

The only docs I know of on this are in the comments in ice-9/optargs.scm

It can also do keyword-introduced arguments, which are often even nicer
than simple optional args.
