Thanks, Sergey. The problem was indeed a classpath problem. The part of my ignorance about Java that seems to cause me the most trouble is my ignorance about Java classpaths. I think some Clojurians underestimate the difficulties involved in learning Clojure without knowing Java first. I wish that the Clojure books available, most of which are quite excellent otherwise, did not assume a previous knowledge of Java on the reader's part but included an early section covering what it is essential to know about Java and the JVM before one can fully understand Clojure and become proficient in it.

Of course, the best response to such a criticism is "Don't just criticize. Write such a book." It will be a while before I know enough to do so!

Larry, it seems that the current folder "." is not in your default classpath. Either try "...-cp ./clojure.jar ..." or add "." into your default CLASSPATH.
