How to verify if a String is a valid URL in Clojure
<p>I was wondering if Clojure has any facility better than the ones described on <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/3931696/how-to-verify-if-a-string-in-java-is-a-valid-url">How to verify if a String in Java is a valid URL</a> for detecting if a given String is a valid URL.</p>

<p>Is there anyone wrapping Apache Commons Validator?  Is there a stand-alone library out there of which I am unaware?</p>
