It looks like regular expressions are the only type with built-in syntax that don't have a predicate function. How about:
(def ^{:arglists '([x]) :doc "Return true if x is a regular expression (java.util.regex.Pattern)" :added "1.3"} re? (fn re? [x] (instance? java.util.regex.Pattern x))) Or maybe call it "regexp?" if "re?" isn't clear enough... -Jeff -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
