Users of non-legacy tools tend to set the bar rather higher, needless to say, typically expecting upgrading something (other than the operating system itself) to take a few minutes, tops, with most of that spent doing something else while progress meters (first "downloading", then "installing") crawl to 100% and the result working OOTB without manual config changes or other nursemaiding. > So maybe some of the pain points people are feeling have to do with > general challenges with configuring Emacs rather than specific problems > with following the online cider docs. > That much is quite believable. :) -- -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
