Jozef, sjacket turns out to be better suited for my purposes because tools.reader (blind) is just a reader and throws away formatting and comments, since I want the source intact Christophe's parser (within sjacket) is ideal, so thanks for the tip!
Ideally a future tools.reader would have the option to retain formatting and comments, even those these are 'not so homoiconic'. I see the capability to use Clojure to manage (and manipulate) Clojure source code to be a huge advantage when Clojure source bases become larger - the problems you run into with large Clojure code-bases are different from Java ones, but there all the same.
