Not sure I understand your question. Since you looked in boot.clj, I
assume you saw the definition of defmacro. In my boot.clj (a little
bit out of date), it looks like this:
(def
#^{:doc "Like defn, but the resulting function name is declared as a
macro and will be used as a macro by the compiler when it is
called."
:arglists '([name doc-string? attr-map? [params*] body]
[name doc-string? attr-map? ([params*] body)+ attr-
map?])}
defmacro (fn [name & args]
(list 'do
(cons `defn (cons name args))
(list '. (list 'var name) '(setMacro)))))
(. (var defmacro) (setMacro))
