Should we remove the brackets entirely? i.e
-- Scheme Procedure: eval-string string #:module=#f #:file=#f
#:line=#f #:column=#f #:lang=(current-language)
#:compile?=#f
Or with @code{}:
-- Scheme Procedure: eval-string string #:module=‘#f’ #:file=‘#f’
#:line=‘#f’ #:column=‘#f’ #:lang=‘(current-language)’
#:compile?=‘#f’
Dunno, just throwing more ideas out there...
