String utilities for Clojure
Deprecated since clojure-contrib version 1.2

but it is not written what should I use instead. There are convenient functions like "chomp" or "re-partition" there.

What should I do to port old clojure v1.1 code to the recent version? Should I just copy functions from clojure-contrib directly to the source code?

yes, I think clojure/core string and re library is better for you.

You can use clojure.contrib.string instead of str-utils contrib

(use 'clojure.contrib.string)

Some of the functionality is in the clojure.string namespace. E.g., chomp exists as trim-newline, str-join is join.
