Right, the outer parenthesis denote a list. That list contains only
one element. The element is the vector ["qui" "ui" "i"]

Why aren't all sequences callable, i.e. why don't they all implement
IFn? I'd like to use lists like this sometimes.

Then why are sets callable? Not that I'm complaining - I found it
handy, then came to wonder why lists aren't.

I think it's important that Clojure be good at exploring Java
libraries. Helpful and correct error messages are important for this.
I often go looking for a function at the REPL, like so:
user=> substring
java.lang.Exception: Unable to resolve symbol: substring in this
context (NO_SOURCE_FILE:
Has the inverse of slurp been added to the core libraries yet? Like this:
(spit "Some text" "/foo.txt")
to make a file called 'foo.txt' containing "Some text".
By the way, it appears that Clojure (or Java) doesn't recognize ~, as
in (slurp "~/foo.txt"). True?

For the File / IO things, skip the Java libs - they are pretty low
level. Go with the Jakarta Commons libs:
http://commons.apache.org/io/description.html , as Stuart has
recommended elsewhere.

Seconded. As far as I can tell all you can do is go to Sourceforge
and poke around in the source code:

It's very handy to be able to type in a symbol at the REPL and see its value.
