[Gimp-user] procedure overloading in scheme / script-fu

[paynekj <forums gimpusers com>]

Can you point me to the scheme manual that talks about overloading please.

As you are talking about variable numbers of arguments, this article seems to explain how it works:
http://www.math.grin.edu/~stone/courses/scheme/readings/variable-arity.xhtml

And in your example, by replacing foo2 with foo you end up with a second definition of foo which replaces the 
first, and then calls itself recursively when used - hence your infinite loop.
