Yes, I think newcomers would benefit from installing it. Clojure is not
like most languages in that it is not "batteries included"--it's just a
library that you can include in your projects that happens to include a
primitive REPL. It's not very pleasant to interact directly with on a
regular basis.

Leiningen is designed to be used from the command-line, but it is also
integrated with various editors and IDEs.

There have been issues reported in the past with the macports version; I
suggest installing manually (it's easy) or switching to homebrew if you
are on Mac OS X.
