Sorry to raise something that has probably been asked and answered umpteen times.
I have been looking forward to trying clojure for quite some time. I appreciate that clojure and its ecosystem is undergoing rapid development. However, I have spent the last day and a half trying to get either aquamacs or gnu emacs working with slime and clojure, with no success. BTW, I have used aquamacs with slime and Common Lisp (ccl, sbcl) for a long time now. I know those are older, more stable languages, but good golly - I had aquamacs+slime+ccl set up in about an hour. Is their a reliable set of instructions to set up slime with clojure somewhere? I have followed instructions from a half dozen different web pages. They are rich in magic incantations which fail (possibly because I'm dense). I *think *I followed the instructions on the Getting Started with Emacs page linked to from the clojure site, but - it did not work. Perhaps my attitude is wrong, but the user comments on the Getting Started page basically demolished my confidence in the information there. I won't post error messages yet, although it may come to that shortly. I would prefer to use aquamacs, but would settle for GNU Emacs. What I want to start with is the simplest set of things that will give me a clojure REPL in aquamacs/emacs. In the absence of reliable installation instructions (or perhaps even preferable to them), is there a description somewhere of the final target state that my system should be in? That is, I actually do NOT *really* want to use any of the following, unless absolutely required: - an Emacs Starter Kit - a development version of GNU Emacs, i.e. v.24 - any kind of package manager for Emacs - any kind of project build system for clojure, i.e. leiningen All of the above appear to me to be well-intended "help", any or all of which have broken on me as I tried this. Instead I would prefer to know what files I need in what locations. But then, who am I to boss y'all around on how to help me ;-) My setup: - Snow Leopard 10.6.8 - aquamacs 2.3a - GNU Emacs 24 - clojure and clojure-contrib from macports, whatever their latest is - Slime-related jar files and elisp files littered all over the place that didn't do me any good TIA. - Jake - -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
