Of course. Hmmm. And I thought I knew this stuff! :) I think I was getting all confused because I was playing with ns and it doesn't require quoting (because it's a macro). It makes sense now - thanks.
Regarding the use of require, am I right in thinking that ns is for library modules and require, use, etc. are appropriate for just bringing in library functions to the REPL? I'm pretty sure this is the case - I just wanted to check as the documentation made me doubt myself a little. Paul. On Oct 14, 10:47 pm, "Stephen C.
