Right, so this is probably a really dumb idea, but I was just having a
little bit of fun. It would be cool if you could define methods like this:

define :foo do
required :bar, :baz
optional :request =3D> 'useless'
named :side,
:meat =3D> 'fish'
body do
puts "Good, I got to say #{foo}#{bar}."
puts "You thought of my third request was #{request}"
puts "For dinner we have #{meat}"
if side
puts "With a side of #{side}"
end
end
end

foo 'hello ', 'world', :meat =3D> 'steak', :side =3D> 'potatoes'

That is the first few times you wrote a definition like that. Then it would
get very old very quickly I'm assuming ;)
