I think JavaScript's "with" means something slightly different. I don't remember about Ruby. But as Stephen pointed out, this is only useful when the methods (or functions) have side-effects -- their return values are thrown away. This explains the use of "do" in the original name, and is a good reason to keep "do" in the new name. I don't see much wrong with "doto->", though "do-with" or "do->" might be okay. I'd probably vote against "do-unto-others-as" --Chouser --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
