Hi,
I managed to put together an Emacs Lisp function to automatically
declare all defined symbols in a Clojure source file. The algorithm is
crude: it doesn't understand syntax, it just parses lines beginning
with either "(def " or "(defn ". A single line beginning with
"(declare " macro must already be present.
I wasn't able to match syntax of Clojure symbols inside the regex - it
should have been "(syntax symbol)", shouldn't it? - therefore I
resorted to:
(any "-" "a-z" "A-Z" "0-9")
which is incomplete.
You could hook the function to file saving or something like that. It
works for me.
Cheers
