You're not the first person to have claimed that. I'd be one of the more
recent ones.

Seriously, the documentation on Araneida IS getting better - but there are
glaring ommissions. How to handle body parameters is one of them.

After school stops being insane for at least a little bit, and I get traction
on my current Lisp project, body parameters are on my list to "deal with."

Seriously not happy with them right now.

Patches or even doc suggestions are always welcome.
