Yes
I'm guessing you mean something on the order of
'( (option (h help) #:none "Display help text")
(option (f file) #:required "Load file"))
and then you would parse that and build both a usage string and a list
of options from it?
Currently I can create an options list like:
(list (args:make-o

Well, in Python I had to parse the usage string, in Scheme I would just
write the usage message as an s-express
I like your recipe. Given a robust enough parser and perhaps some
very minimal markup to help it along, it would cover a lot of cases.
The only problem is, it does not allow you to add a processor
function for each option.
In practice, though, I wonder how useful the processors are---the

args-fold is a neat design, but it can be somewhat complicated (and
tedious) to use. I figure most people will write support code to make
it easier. Unfortunately I could not find any, so at the risk of
reinventing the wheel I wrote my own.
The main goals were: 1. Collate options and operands in
