There is also the overlooked very powerful [dollarg] from iemlib that converts all your arguments into a list. I even made an abstraction that can parse arguments by name like in Jitter. For example, [dollars @currency canadian @exchange_rate 1.87 @output km] could also be written [dollars @output km @exchange_rate 1.87 @currency canadian]
Anyway, dollarg rocks.
