How's this: f{args} (curly braces instead of parens) is the same as
f(lambda: args).

Examples:

    launch_thread{targetfunc(a,b,c)}

    b = Button{callback=pressed()}   # Button remembers callback()

    def ternary(cond, x, y):
       if cond(): return x()
       else: return y()

    sign_of_a = ternary{a < 0, -1, 1}


etc.
