So, how about assertions?
Good. So, that means we scratch the idea of putting it in the proc/ns_proc syntax and keep it as is, i.e. we parse-out only the options from the argument list and do no extra type checking there. Type-checking would be implemented as a separate command then. I understand the blues with the boolean arguments and I am willing to scratch them from the specs. So, if you need "-dothat" you'd be actually saying "-dothat true" or "-dothat false". All that leaves us with the ns_parseargs pretty much as it is now, or? Apropos assertions: http://www.tcl.tk/cgi-bin/tct/tip/53.html This was withdrawn because of the fact that it already exist in tcllib. So, there is very little to do except "package req tcllib" and use what's there. Zoran
