Thank you guys, I think "as->" does more or less what I wanted, so my example could be rewritten to:
(defn csv-line->sql-line [table, line] (as-> % line (str % " ") (str/split % separator) (map csv-field->sql-field %) (str/join ", " %) (str/replace strings-wrapper % "\"") (str "INSERT INTO ", table, " VALUES(" % ");"))) I guess I can live with 2 more spaces per row, and one more "%" ;-) As of the conflict with literal form of anonymous function, that's an interesting question, so I had to check how it works for "as->", and all is fine, you just have to remember about adding "%" after the literal (which is how it should work IMHO), so somewhere in the middle of my function there could be: (as-> % line ... (#(str "[" % "]") %) ...)
