It looks like you've got an unterminated string before you start. e.g.: $ java -cp clojure.jar clojure.main Clojure user=> string-that-does-not-start-with-a-quote" java.lang.Exception: Unable to resolve symbol: string-that-does-not-start-with-a-quote in this context (NO_SOURCE_FILE:0) user=> "C:\dev\something" "\n" user=> java.lang.Exception: Invalid token: C: user=> java.lang.Exception: Unsupported character: \dev user=> java.lang.Exception: Unsupported character: \something user=> So try restarting the repl. Or else type a single " and press Enter and see what you get. If you don't get something like "\n" printed by itself with no exceptions, try it again. -- Michael Wood <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
