I was fooling around in the REPL and from the looks of the transcript, I typed the very same thing, yet in one case the REPL returned (quote foo) and in the other case it returned foo.
Transcript follows: user=> \newline \newline user=> \c \c user=> nil nil user=> false false user=> :foo :foo user=> 'foo (quote foo) user=> 'foo foo How did that happen? --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
