Can you show me your real-world > example? This is an interesting example. I don't imagine anyone would have a problem supporting the conversion of Strings to another basic type such as an Integer, but jumping from String to Picture from within the command-line spec is a bit steep. Perhaps for built-in types, the command-line spec should support defining the destination type and handle the conversion from string. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
