Here's one, I'm setting basedir to either :basedir in a map in *locs
(a thread-local var) or to "." if :basedir was not found in the map...
(let [basedir (if-let [bdir (:basedir *locs)] bdir ".")]
...)
i.e bdir assumes the value of the test and if that is not false (or
nil) returns it otherwise the else part.
