Hi! Looks good to me, I’ve added it to the repository. Thanks for your
contribution!

I also took the liberty to add your documentation to the wiki, but note
that you can edit it yourself, even without an account. :)

Speaking of documentation, tools like chicken-doc and api.call-cc.org are

your documentation to use them? Here are the relevant bits of information:
