I agree - learning clojure, I don't want to know about emacs either (especially since installing clojure support has been unsuccessful so far). Eclipse has a nice plugin, by Sean Devlin I believe. The "killer app" for Clojure, I'm pretty certain, is a long-running concurrent application. You know, something like a web server. Long- running is neat because you can modify the runtime without the limitations of hotswap or jrebel, and concurrent is neat because it's a lot simpler to write concurrent programs with enforced mutability. Note that the REPL is a pretty killer app, and it would certainly be interesting to "grow" the REPL into two completely different programs! Of course, it could also be a GUI app, too. But, for some reason Lispy programmers don't seem to be very good at making things look pretty. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
