I also really like parentdollarzero from iemlib. But as for dollarg, it would be great if it could get the arguments of a parent further up the parent hierarchy. Something like [EMAIL PROTECTED] (or $@@... whatever) that would go up two parents, get all the arguments AND the dollar zero. That would then solve lots of state saving pains.
