Any library for Java properties files in new contrib?

Question

In the old monolithic clojure-contrib there were java-utils and properties namespaces with a few handy functions, like read-properties which parsed a Java properties file into a Clojure map.

Is there an equivalent of these namespaces in the new contrib?

I know that it is easy to write (i.e. copy-paste) the function and I'll probably do it anyway, but if it's already somewhere I'd rather not duplicate code.

I am a little confused. Do you need a way easy read property files in Java? — Mohayemin, Jul 18 '12 at 11:20
@Mohayemin: No, I want to read a Java-style property file in Clojure as a Clojure-native map. — Goran Jovic, Jul 18 '12 at 11:24

@mikera: Thanks, I didn't see that one. I ended up with a similar function - with keywordized keys. — Goran Jovic, Jul 18 '12 at 13:45

The java_utils library never made it, but check out propertea. I think it'll do what you want.
