It's funny how things suddenly click. While out for a run (the only time I seem to be able find clarity it seems) I started thinking that it would be nice to have macros for "require" and "use" so that you don't have to worry about quoting then I realized that's exactly what ns is for!
I *should* be using ns like this: user=> (ns user (:require [clojure.contrib.zip-filter :as zf])) For some reason I was convinced the ns macro was for use in static library modules that need to be in their own distinct namespace. That is - I thought, it was used to create NEW namespaces. It didn't click that ns is more general and allows you to modify existing namespaces and therefore is just as useful in that sense at the REPL. Cheers, Paul. BTW: That patch is great Stephen - if this gets incorporated it will make future mistakes with the use of ns very easy to diagnose, thanks. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
