Yep, I took a look at that before responding. I'm just not sure what the fix should be: make (doseq) return nil as advertised, or update the documentation. I tend towards the former, although the latter is fine too. :-) Either way, something should be fixed. :-) I folks believe it's a documentation problem, I'm happy to whip up a patch for that. -John -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
