That's fine by me.

Yes, I understand it's because of the --repl.
This is what Python does:
$ python
Python 2.5.1 (r251:54863, Jul 31 2008, 23:17:40)
[GCC 4.1.3 20070929 (prerelease) (Ubuntu 4.1.2-16ubuntu2)] on linux2
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>>
$ python -i -c 'print "welcome to the repl"'
welcome to the repl
>>>
$ echo 'print "Hello from test.py"' >test.py
$ python -i test.py
Hello from test.py
>>>
That's not to say you should copy Python for the sake of it, but I think it
makes sense :)
I forgot to say that I think having a separate cljc makes sense.
