It's not hard to make a wrapper. Binding *out* io/writer my-output-stream), binding *print-dup* true, pr-str foo, close parenthesis, close parenthesis. Maybe it should be under clojure.edn as edn/write or something, but at least it's nigh trivial to write. My main complaint with edn is that *reading* isn't platform independent because you need to wrap io/reader in a PushbackReader on JVM. There's nothing in the io or edn libraries to make a reader that read-string and edn/read will accept, so you have to juggle platforms in your own code, and even with cljc that's a nuisance that might have been avoided if there's nothing else platform-varying that you need that isn't abstracted behind some multi-platform library. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
