Re: (doc more-examples)
Or an option for more extended doc when launching REPL for those who need the extra documentation more than performance during development, or maybe a searchable dictionary panel at the left hand side of REPL, ala some versions of Ruby's irb. Meanwhile, thanks for the pointer to the clojure quickref at clojuredocs.org. Good enough.

Not sure how practical that is since the docstrings would substantially outweigh the code - maybe Clojure/core could comment? I wouldn't use docstrings for this, as they increase runtime footprint. That said, an alternate doc macro could look other places besides docstrings. It shouldn't be difficult to write an examples macro that calls out to e.g. clojuredocs.org.

(doc more-examples)
Hello, More examples in how to use a form in the (doc ...) facility within REPL would be very useful to newbies.

Not sure how practical that is since the docstrings would substantially outweigh the code - maybe Clojure/core could comment? I'd recommend using the community-managed clojuredocs.org website since anyone can login and add / edit examples and notes etc. Not as convenient from the REPL, I agree, but I find I always have clojuredocs.org and clojureatlas.com open in tabs in my browser when I need more detail. -- Sean A Corfield -- (904) 302-SEAN An Architect's View -- http://corfield.org/ World Singles, LLC. -- http://worldsingles.com/ Railo Technologies, Inc. -- http://www.getrailo.com/ Perfection is the enemy of the good. -- Gustave Flaubert, French realist novelist (1821-1880) -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Clojure group.
