 |  | Wouldn't exact-foo and inexact-foo be more in keeping with other
 |  | R5RS procedure names?  After all, we swallowed
 |  | call-with-current-continuation.
 |
 | Yes.
 |
 | Looking for simple "convenience function" precedents in R5RS, the only
 | ones which come to mind are NEWLINE and REMAINDER.

Scheme has lots more convenience functions: CAAR, CADR, CDAR, ...
So convenience functions are Schemely.

What should these new functions be called?

 exact-round	 exact-ceiling	 exact-floor	 exact-truncate

 round->exact	 ceiling->exact	 floor->exact	 truncate->exact
