By (semi-)popular demand, I have added the pretty printer and the Common Lisp format function (which are really the same package) into clojure.contrib. It all lives in the namespace clojure.contrib.pprint.
Important: If you want to use pretty printing, you will have to compile all the source code in clojure.contrib and not just put it in in the jar. To do this, need to tell ant where clojure.jar is so that it can run the compiler. For example, I use: ant -Dclojure.jar=../clojure/clojure.jar (This is necessary because pretty printing uses a couple of gen- classed classes to wrap java Writers.) I haven't done that much work on the pretty printer since my last announcement, but there are a few improvements: - I added support for *print-level* and *print-length* to control how much output you get. - Support for a bunch more special forms and let-like structures in *code-dispatch* - Support for pretty printing Java arrays - ~3x basic speedup (or 3x less slow, depending on how you look at it). On my machine, this translates into about 300 lines of code/ second. More to come here... - Some fixes to allow for deeper structures (as in "very deep") without blowing the stack. All in all, it should be a pretty serviceable pretty printer. More coming, though... The documentation is still on github, but I've updated it for clojure.contrib.
