I see
Guess I'm a bit too much used to programming javascript where a
function always carries its source around with it - a very very
convenient tool in very functional languages where functions are
passed along so often
anyway, gr8 thanks!

Oded,
If you look at the source of source .. you will notice that the source is
not stored in the meta information but it just picks up the filename and

#'user/f
user=> (f 6)
11
user=> (read-string (with-out-str (source f)))
Sour
To get the source form of the function "map?":
(read-string (with-out-str (source map?)))
This may not work only when the function has been AOT'ed already. Hope
this helps.

when knowing to what values it is bound to one can tell what it
actually does.
So it can be very helpful to be able to query the runtime (
