Optional (and/or Default) Parameters

Hi, just wondering if LSL has the ability to support optional parameters for UDF's?

As example, I'm wanting to create a function that passes commands between attachments. I want this function to always take a "command" variable, and optionally may also take relevant "parameter" variable(s). Something vaguely like this, for a weapon and HUD...

integer ACCESSORY_COMMAND_CHANNEL = 10;
key OWNER_KEY;
    
accessoryCommand(string cmd, string param = "")
{
    llRegionSayTo(OWNER_KEY, ACCESSORY_COMMAND_CHANNEL, cmd + ":" + param);
}

default
{
    state_entry() {
        OWNER_KEY = llGetOwner();
    }
    
    touch_start(integer num) {
        accessoryCommand("primary_attached");
        accessoryCommand("ammo", "30");
    }
}

Appreciate any help or direction!
