Interesting - I had never heard of it either. It appears to allow you to execute code at read-time. user=> (read-string "(foo (+ 2 3) bar)") (foo (+ 2 3) bar) user=> (read-string "(foo #=(+ 2 3) bar)") (foo 5 bar) I guess the ability to disable it with *read-eval* is something to do with reading from an untrusted source. I can't, off the top of my head, think of how I would use this. I thought the ability to run code at macro-expansion time was cool enough - now I find out I can do it at read-time too! -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
