Colin Fleming has done some nice work on this in Cursive. He gave a talk on it at Clojure Conj 2015: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kt4haSH2xcs > If you're new to tooling, and want to try Clojure right away, I strongly > recomend Oakes' Nightcode. [...] beginner-friendly parenthesis management > [...] Nightcode used to be my recommendation for total newbies, and I used it in my courses to teach beginners. But in the current versions of Nightcode, parinfer is always on, which in my opinionated opinion is the antithesis of beginner-friendly parenthesis management. It is wonderfully clever and some people love it, but in my experience it's not at all beginner-friendly to interfere with the student's existing typing skills and expectations in the way that paredit does, or especially in the way that parinfer does. I spend a fair bit of time evaluating and re-evaluating clojure environment options for new programmers. There are a bunch of really great tools out there, but from my perspective none of them currently quite nails all of the requirements in this area. FWIW my currently favored approach is to use a modified version of Gorilla REPL: https://groups.google.com/d/msg/clojure/Rqsc8j3rJS8/ehAw4ut4BwAJ. But I am always on the hunt for better alternatives, and I am currently planning to revisit Proto REPL (in Atom), following a nice talk on it by Jason Gilman at Clojure Conj 2016: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=buPPGxOnBnk -Lee -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Clojure" group.
