Dear Clojure Group,

Following an Enlive tutorial I wanted to implement a function 'd-map'
that takes an arbitrary number of [:key (list of values)] parameters
like this:

(d-map [:headline ["this" "is" "me"] ]
            [:points [1 2 3] ]
            [:comments [10 20 30] ])


and returns a collection of [:key value] vectors where each value is
grouped with its respective key:

[ [:headline "this"] [:headline "is"] [:headline "me"]
  [:points 1] [:points 2] [:points 3]
  [:comments 10] [:comments 20] [:comments 30] ]


I could only come up with the following implementation for 'd-map'.
Although it works it just does not 'feel' elegant of even very
functional:

(defn d-map [& kfps]
  (let [keys     (map first kfps)
         fns       (map second kfps)]
    (loop [keys keys fns fns res []]
      (if (seq keys)
        (recur (rest keys) (rest fns)
                   (into res (map (fn [x] [(first keys) x]) (first
fns))))
        res))))

I am relatively new to Clojure and want to learn how to write
idiomatic code. I therefore appreciate any alternative implementation
that might help me learn some new things.

Stefan
