Doc: returns the default corresponding to keyword \var{key}. If \var{val} is
 present, sets the default to \var{val} first (which is subject to string
 expansion first). Typing \kbd{default()} (or \b{d}) yields the complete
 default list as well as their current values. See \secref{se:defaults} for an
 introduction to GP defaults, \secref{se:gp_defaults} for a
 list of available defaults, and \secref{se:meta} for some shortcut
 alternatives. Note that the shortcuts are meant for interactive use and
 usually display more information than \kbd{default}.
