that is because the example i mentioned does exactly this: get the
arguments of the parent.
obviously it is simpler if you need your own args.
nevertheless, it should show (among other things) how to solve hc's problem.
sorry if it was confusing, it was just the 1st example that came to my
mind (and [saveargs] being what it is, does nothing much besides the
wanted functionality; but "nothing much" is not "nothing")
