Python provides the ability for any function to be called with either
positional or keyword [1] arguments. Here is a particularly brutal example:
args={'a':1,'b':2,'c':3}
def f(a,b,c): return (a,b,c)
def g(b,c,a): return (a,b,c)
for j in [f,g]: print j(1,2,3)
for j in [f,g]:

So, I was, thinking about the way Common Lisp handles keyword
arguments. It's possible to declare a Lisp function as follows:
(defun make-para ( content &key alignment font size color ) ...)
The point here is that the first argument is dealt with positionally,
and subsequent, opti
