I use nailgun to solve the jvm startup time. It works very well. When I'm editing a 'script' in vimclojure I just hit \ef and my 'nail' is instantly compiled and available at the command line. It's about as painless as possible. I do create a small bash wrapper for each clojure script. The bash

Web/Screenscraping Library?

Are there any libraries that can extract structured web content as represented visually in the browser? I realize I could write regexes and extract using the HTML, but I was wondering if there was something that worked with the browser-rendered representation. I.e., something a tad more human-

Cake also aims to solve the startup time problem with a client/server architecture similar to nailgun. You can add '#!/usr/bin/env cake' to the top of clojure scripts you want to be executable, and there's even a built-in filter task for text manipulation inspired by 'perl -pe'. http://clojure-ca
