Although this shows how to convert a string into a seq of chars, for the life of me I can't find a function in any libraries (or any info in the newsgroup) to do the reverse, i.e. (\t \e \s \t) => "test"... The closest I can find is (print-str [\t \e \s \t])=>"t e s t"
...can anyone give me a pointer? Thanks in advance!
