The `clojure` command just loads your script – it doesn’t call -main – if you had
;; test.clj (println “Loaded!”) And you ran `clojure test.clj` then it would print Loaded! So you could do: #!/usr/bin/env clojure (println (str “Hello, “ (first *command-line-args*))) (the clojure.main/main function binds the command line arguments to that var) This works on OS X – I haven’t tried it on Linux.

So for a file like: # file-name: hello #!/usr/bin/env clojure (defn -main [name] (println (str "Hello, " name))) and execute it like: ./hello John the "-main" function is not executed. Is there another method? Also, any additional advice with respect to using Clojure for shell scripting would be appreciated.
