Fantastic!  Hope to see your "just works" emacs.

By looking at the documentation for the system.  I guess I was mostly
referring to libraries which come with the system.  I think your
comments are more about using third party libraries or other libraries
not included with the system.  But heck, at this juncture I'm just
trying to use plain Clojure!  Just seems to me that I should be able
to type some code in an editor within an IDE (not the REPL), push some
button called "run" or "compile and run" or "build and run" or
whatever, and get it to run.  But nope.  None of those major projects
I tried (NetBeans, IntelliJ, etc) will do this, or at least I couldn't
get them to do it.

About libraries not included with the main system, one poster here
spoke of how Racket does things.  I use another programming language
which does a similar thing.  It has a "package manager" (called
pacman) built right into the IDE.  I haven't had a need to use it much
(the default language comes with a ton of stuff already working) but
apparently this pacman thing goes out onto the internet, downloads the
package you select, installs it in the right location, then does all
the "dependency garbage" for you.

Reminds me, btw, of installing ports on FreeBSD.  There's an automated
thing I've used many times that just goes out, grabs what you need,
and installs it.  I'm not saying it's the same thing as what we are
talking about here (maybe it is, maybe it isn't), but it sort of
reminds me of it, anyway.
