Setting Up Clojure on OS X

I spent a lot of time trying to find a pretty optimal (for me) setup for Clojure… at the same time I was trying to dive in and learn it. This is never optimal; you shouldn't be fighting the environment while trying to learn something.

I feel like I went through a lot of pain searching Google, StackOverflow, blogs, and other sites for random tidbits of information and instructions.

This is a comprehensive "what I learned and what I ended up doing" that will hopefully be of use to others and act as a journal for myself if I ever have to do it again. I want to be very step-by-step and explain what's happening (and why) at each step.

Step 1: Getting Clojure (1.3)

tmux cheatsheet

As configured in my dotfiles.

start new:

tmux

start new with session name:

	'use strict';

	// Add ECMA262-5 method binding if not supported natively
	//
	if (!('bind' in Function.prototype)) {
	Function.prototype.bind= function(owner) {
	var that= this;
	if (arguments.length<=1) {
	return function() {
	return that.apply(owner, arguments);

	package flexunit.example.parameterized
	{
	public class Model
	{
	public function calculate(... args):Number
	{
	return NaN;
	}
	}
	}

	; A REPL-based, annotated Seesaw tutorial
	; Please visit https://github.com/daveray/seesaw for more info
	;
	; This is a very basic intro to Seesaw, a Clojure UI toolkit. It covers
	; Seesaw's basic features and philosophy, but only scratches the surface
	; of what's available. It only assumes knowledge of Clojure. No Swing or
	; Java experience is needed.
	;
	; This material was first presented in a talk at @CraftsmanGuild in
	; Ann Arbor, MI.
