Indirect answer: could you use `command-line` instead?

#lang racket/base
(require racket/cmdline)

(define input-from (make-parameter #f))

(command-line
  #:program "sample"
  #:once-each
  [("-i" "--input-file")
   i
   "Use <input_file> as the input file."
   (input-from i)]
  #:args (file)
  (printf "my argument is: ~a\n" file)
  ;; do things with `file` and `input-from` here
)
