- Lisps traditionally favor names with hyphens in them and Clojure
continues that tradition.
- For interop with Java, Clojure Namespace names map to corresponding
Java Package names which in turn map to locations in ClassPath.
- Unfortunately, names with hyphens in them are not legal Java
Package names. (see
http://java.sun.com/docs/books/jls/third_edition/html/packages.html#7.7
).
- To handle this clash, Clojure automatically converts hyphens to
underscores to produce the file/directory/package names associated
with a namespace.
- The namespace you're looking for above is 'clojure.contrib.duck-
streams' (with a hyphen).
