If you have the latest version of clojure.contrib you can do the following:
Modify the namespace declaration in swank-clojure/swank/commands/basic.clj
to look like the following:
(ns swank.commands.basic
(:refer-clojure :exclude [load-file])
(:use (swank util commands core)
(swank.util.concurrent thread)
(swank.util string clojure)
clojure.contrib.pprint)
(:require (swank.util [sys :as sys]))
(:import (java.io StringReader File)
(java.util.zip ZipFile)
(clojure.lang LineNumberingPushbackReader)))
In the same file modify apply-macro-expander to look like the following:
(defn- apply-macro-expander [expander string]
(binding [*print-suppress-namespaces* true]
(with-pprint-dispatch *code-dispatch*
(write (expander (read-from-string string)) :pretty true :stream
nil))))
Now that pprint is a part of contrib, these two changes should probably be
incorporated into swank-clojure.
