I am just hoping this is for SRFI support, not something we would use
in our own system... or is this NOT the "Old School" Scheme
congregation? (Ummm... :-)?
Can I write
(make-sumpn 'color "red")
as well as
(make-sumpn :color "red")
(make-sumpn color: "red")
and
(make-sumpn :color: "red")
Sorry. Not the last one? ?
