I think all of your argument names are a bad idea. #X and #Y are
usually fixed constants (namely axes) in their uppercase form. There is
absolutely no conceivable reason for using this form instead of
lowercase letters and/or something more descriptive like xoff/yoff .
"etc" is so close to "\etc" that people will tend to "autocorrect". Why
not use "event" or "dyn" ? And by the way, the predicate should be the
more specific ly:event? , or otherwise construction of a post-event will
fail at an unexpected place when a non-postevent is given as argument.
It also seems writing -\f rather than \f suggests that it would not work
otherwise while it does.
