When you use (binding [varname newvalue]) the var gets given a thread-local binding, and you can change the value of that binding with set! The repl gives thread bindings to a number of variables that you might want to change, but user.clj is called before the repl, and at that point the vars just have their root bindings which set! can't changed. You could change the root binding from user.clj by using: (alter-var-root #'*print-length* (constantly 5)) -- Dave -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
