I'm new to Clojure and don't have much experience with Lisps in general, but trying to do this seems weird to me. My understanding is that macros are, well, macros -- code which is expanded at compile-time to other code. In which case the interface the macro facility provides isn't a set of compiler hooks, but just the ability to factor and abstract the same code you could write without the macro facility. What ultimate code-expansion are you trying to achieve? Perhaps there's a different way to do it which works within the confines of pure code re-writing. -Marshall -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
