Emacs 23 or newer is needed for Clojure support. Emacs 24 is needed for the Starter Kit. > I'm using a Debian > based system. so I went to http://emacs.naquadah.org/. > a.

So if you want to use the terminal version only, try emacs-snapshot-nox; if you want a debug build, emacs-snapshot-dbg, etc. > 2.

The next section labeled "Slime and Swank Clojure" links to the readme for swank-clojure, which explains how to use M-x clojure-jack-in; the simplest way to get a slime session going. It should probably be cleaned up a bit since it's accumulated some cruft over the months, but it's all correct. -Phil -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
