Interesting... I wonder if something like that could be TIPped into
Tcl itself? What about if I don't define any nonpositional arguments,
can I pass arguments beginning with a dash? I kind of hope so, or
otherwise it may be necessary to pass "--" everywhere, and it adds
incompatibility with older XOTcls.
