Summary: dollarsign: expressions, 

Initial Comment:
mathematical expressions as creation arguments would be nice, 
just like C-function calls, especially those including preceding 
creation arguments,  
e.g.  
[myobj  $1/2  $2+4], or 
[myobj expr($1/3) 2]. 
 
... Further/Alternatively, it would be interesting to have a set 
method, setting the dollar argument like a variable, or recreating 
the abstraction / object with new arguments 
e.g.  
[setarg 1 4(,  
[recreate arg 1 2(, 
or in the abstraction  
[setdollar $1],  
[inlet $1] ...
