pst

function
Usage: (pst)
       (pst e-or-depth)
       (pst e depth)
Prints a stack trace of the exception, to the depth requested. If none supplied, uses the root cause of the

    Added in Clojure version 1.3
Source


root-cause

function
Usage: (root-cause t)
Returns the initial cause of an exception or error by peeling off all of
its wrappers

    Added in Clojure version 1.3
Source


set-break-handler!

function
Usage: (set-break-handler!)
       (set-break-handler! f)
Register INT signal handler.  After calling this, Ctrl-C will cause
the given function f to be called with a single argument, the signal.
Uses thread-stopper if no function given.

source

macro
Usage: (source n)
Prints the source code for the given symbol, if it can find it.
This requires that the symbol resolve to a Var defined in a
namespace for which the .clj is in the classpath.

Example: (source filter)

    
    
    Source
  


source-fn

function
Usage: (source-fn x)
Returns a string of the source code for the given symbol, if it can
find it.  This requires that the symbol resolve to a Var defined in
a namespace for which the .clj is in the classpath.  Returns nil if
it can't find the source.  For most REPL usage, 'source' is more
convenient.

Example: (source-fn 'filter)

function
Usage: (thread-stopper)
       (thread-stopper thread)

to stop the given thread.  Defaults to the current thread
