Which doesn't help jlk much, since he was wanting to extend String and: => (proxy [String] []) #<CompilerException java.lang.VerifyError: Cannot inherit from final class (NO_SOURCE_FILE:0)> The JVM won't allow that. He'll need to find some workaround, probably involving extending CharSequence instead of String. -- Protege: What is this seething mass of parentheses?! Master: Your father's Lisp REPL.
