It looks like you may have already found this since I use that exact `remove_arguments` function lol, but nonetheless my notebooks with similar goals are [here](https://github.com/nathanrboyer/KD232.jl) and [here](https://github.com/nathanrboyer/KM620.jl). You can wrap your `@latexrun` expressions in `remove_arguments` without affecting the underlying function definition. Then the function definitions displayed nicely in the notebook are all available by loading the package.

> Continuing the discussion from [Unitful dispatch](https://discourse.julialang.org/t/unitful-dispatch/49480/9): I want to dispatch specifically on u"inch". What am I missing? In this MWE, I want mm(1), mm(1u"inch"), and mm(1.0u"inch") to all return 25.4 mm. using Unitful InchType = Quantity{ \<:Any, Unitful.𝐋, Unitful.FreeUnits{(Unitful.inch,), Unitful.𝐋, nothing}, } function mm(x::Real) x \* u"inch" |\> u"mm" |\> float end function mm(x::InchType) x |\> u"mm" |\> float end julia\> x = 1u"inch" 1 inch julia\> XType = typeof(x) Quantity{Int6…

Looks like we are all doing similar things! 😆
