 - Functions should list their expected arguments as precisely as possible. That is, write
 
   ```nix
-  { stdenv, fetchurl, perl }: "..."
+  { stdenv, fetchurl, perl }: <...>
   ```
 
   instead of
 
   ```nix
-  args: with args; "..."

   or
 
   ```nix

   For functions that are truly generic in the number of arguments (such as wrappers around `mkDerivation`) that have some required arguments, you should write them using an `@`-pattern:
