I don't like Curry.jl that much, but I was motivated to choose Curry.jl because it was a short name that is sort-of related and would pass the automatic registration requirements (afaik).

Thanks for suggesting ArgFix.jl. It is also very short and has a better chance of being descriptive than "Curry". I also have mixed feelings about that name, because it makes me think of "command line arguments" (e.g. ArgParse.jl) and not of "function arguments".

I was curious to see what currently registered names with Arg are about https://juliahub.com/ui/Packages?q=Arg

command-line arguments
https://juliahub.com/ui/Packages/ArgParse/apuSZ
https://juliahub.com/ui/Packages/ArgMacros/aUDMk

function arguments
https://juliahub.com/ui/Packages/ArgCheck/P66Js (hi!!)
https://juliahub.com/ui/Packages/ArgTools/aGHFV

And that's all I found, so it's not like there's a particularly strong precedent that Arg means "command-line argument".

Also worth considering that (fundamentally) this package introduces a type that is currently called Fix, and that that many packages like that just pluralize the type name (e.g OffsetArrays.jl).

After brief consideration, I am just about ready to rename to ArgFix.jl, but I'll wait a bit in case any other ideas emerge. Thanks again for your help and interest!

branch names master -> main
package name: Curry.jl -> FixArgs.jl

The docs will get triggered later I think.

The docs still seems to have the old name.
