   The only idea that occurs offhand is kinda half-arsed, but if
it'll fill your needs.....


   If you want "foo(3,5)", try using some character that DOS
ignores, such as the ";". Then write your program such that
it recognizes the ";" and automagically replaces it with

a ",".

    Just an idea....
