You can, however, make the slime REPL better aware of Clojure syntax (and font-locking). See the function slime-clojure-repl-setup in my emacs config here: http://github.com/purcell/emacs.d/blob/master/init-clojure.el -Steve -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
