I'm not thinking about an universal new syntax but a way to make
easier the write of some kinds of functions/methods like ... only
avoids the use of xpar1, xpar2, xpar3, ..., xparn

I didn't consider the support of complex data like arrays, hashes or codeblocks.
The idea is to use it in "interface methods" where you usually pass
simple data like numbers and strings.

and pass parameters between two processes.
Actually I use XML or JSON but they are too heavy to pass few
parameters to a function.
