The prefix "call-with-XXX" is used for procedures that, when called, call one of their arguments, supplying some XXX as the argument for that call. So "call-with-XXX" (and "call/XX") instead of "kcall" seems to follow the tradition. What may be debatable is the suffix "keywords"/"kw" as the procedure called is not called with keywords but with keyword arguments. Marc
