I take your point; I've given up trying to actually define a function with the expression for the moment (I'd imagine it's still possible, just much trickier than I thought). My intention was to fake operator overloading. For my purposes it should be enough to evaluate the expression with substituted functions, which is very easy: (defmacro subFuncs [arg1 arg2] (eval `(replace ~arg1 ~arg2)) ) -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
