Seems nice.
Lancelot> int get<var_integer, var_zinteger> ()
It seems to me that it might be better if the get<> template itself knew
about the storage equivalence between different var_ types and so code
like this:
Lancelot> + var = cmd->var.get<var_string,
Lancelot> + var_string_noescape,
Lancelot> + var_optional_filename,
Lancelot> + var_filename> ();
... could be simplified.
