I don't understand the exclamatory critique. What would be the problem with the following actually working (as it similarly does in ns)? (require [clojure.contrib string io]) So far as I am aware, it is most idiomatic in clojure to write literal collections with vector brackets instead of quoted list parens. I'm of the mind that one should prefer vector notation unless one requires a list type, or is calling a function, or is emitting code from a macro. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
