clojure-jack-in vs. slime-connect

2011-08-17 Thread Jose A. Ortega Ruiz
Hi, I use (technomancy's) slime with clojure-mode (both elpa-installed) without any issues (via lein swank and slime-connect). While the newish clojure-jack-in works too, i prefer slime-connect (because i save the time of re-evaluating the slime code everytime i restart the REPL). So i was wonde
