So I've noticed one of the most common questions in #clojure from beginners is how to install SLIME. Working with SLIME can be messy work[1], so I've written some functionality to help out with that.
If you check out my "installer" branch of clojure-mode[2] you can see the clojure-install command that checks out clojure, clojure-contrib, slime, and swank-contrib, then configures Emacs to use these libraries. I've tested it and it works fine on my machine, but I'm wondering a couple things: 0) Would it be a useful thing to include in mainline clojure-mode to get beginners started? It's rather unconventional, but it seems like it could address a very common problem. 1) How well does it work for others? -Phil [1] - har har.
