@alexmiller: With the additions to clojure.string namespace, would you consider a version of clojure.core/subs that would be (a) nil safe and (b) don’t throw IndexOutOfBounds if ‘end’ is larger than the length of the string? So you can do (subs a 0 100) instead of (subs a 0 (min 100 (count a)))?

I just saw this has been discussed. Please ignore
