What I'd like, though, is for it to be possible to copy the metadata over to a new function by client code, just using the regular (with-meta (fn [blah] blah) (meta old-fn)) mechanism. But then the sneaky symbol, or whatever extra thing, in the metadata, that's used in the form to be eval-ed is pointing to the original function, not the one passed in. Maybe just providing a utility for fixing up the metadata is the right move, though it's kidn of dissatisfying. -- Ben Wolfson "Human kind has used its intelligence to vary the flavour of drinks, which may be sweet, aromatic, fermented or spirit-based. ...
