I want to generate rules with constant and/or functions producing parts of
the rules:

(defn rulemaker []
   (str "SCOPE " global-constant ";" (some-global-function) ";"))

which could be called with

(with-super-closure model-in-file-reference
    (rulemaker))

Is there a way to make some "temporary global constants" that could be
reached from a function without passing it the this state or closure
explicitly?

What's the simpler way? Should I simply make a search-replace table which I
prepare and run all the templates through or is there another way? I would
love to be able not to pass around a state, like

(defn rulemaker [z] (str "SCOPE " (some-generator-function z)))

since that's a bit error-prone and verbose. Is this one of few occasions
for a macro or should I somehow create a namespace or something explicitly
for this code-generation? All magic allowed, since it's a very restricted
domain that rather should be as convenient as possible to use.
