The problem was somewhere else in the function. '(interactive (list (y-
or-n-p "bool: ")))' works as it should.

The only problem is that I use more parameters. At the moment I have
in the function:
    (interactive "r\nsHead: \nnKill Region? ")
And the last should be the bool. How would I do that?
